the ugliness of your Hinder parts. When ye therefore mention Allah, be abstemious and stand upright, for, verily, froth is on the surface of what is pure.'"[1] "'Commander of the Believers'", replied Ṭulaiḥah, "this is one of the corruptions of unbelief which has altogether been destroyed by Islâm.
