"How to Take Care of a House According to Islam"

"There are several ways to take care of a house according to Islam that friends of Dream can practice in order to create a comfortable dwelling:"

1. Maintaining Cleanliness

Islam highly values cleanliness. Both personal hygiene and the cleanliness of the place we live in. Because a clean home is beneficial for our health. On the other hand, if the house is dirty, it will become a breeding ground for diseases that have a negative impact on its occupants. Therefore, it is important to clean the house regularly. The Prophet Muhammad said, "Cleanliness is part of faith." (Narrated by Muslim)

2. Using Fragrances

The comfortable house is not only clean, my friend Dream. But also fragrant. The fragrant aroma is what will make its occupants feel comfortable inside the house. Now, my friend Dream can provide room fresheners inside the house. Moreover, currently there are various types of aromas that you can choose according to your preferences.

3. Reading the Al-Quran and Engaging in Much Dhikr

The way to maintain a comfortable living environment in a house is by reading the Al-Quran and engaging in frequent remembrance of Allah, as practiced by its residents. This is because a house can potentially become a dwelling place for demons that are ready to disturb humans at any time. Therefore, it is important to always fill the house with recitation of the Al-Quran and remembrance of Allah, so that the demons do not feel comfortable staying in that house.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Do not make your houses like graves. Verily, Satan flees from the house in which Surah Al-Baqarah is recited." (Narrated by Muslim)

4. Do not place images of living creatures.

As Muslims, we should not place pictures of living creatures inside the house. Whether it is humans or animals hanging on the walls of the house. The Prophet Muhammad said: "Indeed, angels will not enter a house in which there are pictures (of living creatures)." (Narrated by Bukhari and Muslim)

5. Maintaining Harmony Among House Residents

If Dream's friend lives with several household members, it is important to maintain harmony within it. This is to create a harmonious and loving relationship with each other. Therefore, every family usually has their own way to create this harmony. For example, by spending time together and having conversations in the evening.

6. Honoring Guests

"Islam teaches its followers to always honor guests who visit their homes. We should treat guests as best as possible and entertain them. The Prophet Muhammad said, 'Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should honor his guest.' (Narrated by Bukhari and Muslim)."

7. Pray when entering and leaving the house.

Islam teaches its followers to always pray when they are about to do something. This includes when entering and leaving the house, so don't forget to pray. When entering the house, don't forget to greet first. Whether there are occupants inside or not.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "If a person enters his house and mentions the name of Allah upon entering and while eating, the devil says: 'There is no place to stay and no dinner for us.'" (Narrated by Muslim)
