بے شک اللہ پاکیزگی اختیار کرنے والوں کو پسند فرماتا ہے۔”
(سورۃ التوبہ 9:108)
قربانی کے دوران صفائی، ستھرائی اور حفظانِ صحت کا خاص خیال رکھنا ہماری دینی اور معاشرتی ذمہ داری ہے۔
آلائشوں کو مناسب جگہ پر تلف کریں
صاف پانی اور جراثیم کش اشیاء کا استعمال کریں
گوشت کو حفظانِ صحت کے اصولوں کے مطابق محفوظ کریں
اپنے اردگرد کے ماحول کو صاف رکھیں
صاف ماحول صحت مند معاشرہ
ذمہ دار شہری بنیں، صفائی اپنائیں
