Today I will be taking us through hadith 10 of our book- "commentary of An-Nawwawi"

Hadith 10:

Abu Hurairah,  radiyallahu  'anhu, reported that the Messenger of Allah,  sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam, said:

“Verily Allah the Exalted is pure. He  does not accept but that which is pure. Allah commands  the believers with what He commanded the Messengers. Allah the Almighty has said: "O you Messengers! Eat of the good things and act righteously" [23:51-53]. And Allah the Almighty also said: "O you who believe! Eat of the  good things that We have provided you with"
       Then he (the Prophet) mentioned (the case of) the man who,  having journeyed far, is dishevelled and dusty and who stretches out his hands to the sky (saying): "O Lord! O Lord!"  (while) his food was unlawful, his drink was unlawful, his clothing was  unlawful, and he is nourished with unlawful things, so how can he be answered?”
        The term "Verily Allah the Exalted is pure" means  Allah has all the attributes of perfection and completeness, free from any kind of  shortcomings, weaknesses or needs. As for "He does not accept but that which is pure", the  hadith  refers to all good deeds. Allah does not accept any deeds that are spoilt by any aspects that may ruin it. For example, the deed must be free  from showing-off to others and in  the case that involves  wealth then the wealth must come from legal sources. Allah commanded the Believers (Mu'minin) in  the same manner as He commanded the Messengers: "O Messengers! Eat of the Tayyibat" [Surah Al-Mu'minun (23): ayat 51] "O you who believe!  Eat  of the Tayyibat that We  have provided you with, .." [Surah Al-Baqarah (2): ayat 172]
