                           Abstract
                           As Allah Almighty has appointed His good servants, prophets, saints, Infallibles
                           Imams, and scholars to guide people and teach them religious laws and spiritual
                           perfections,  similarly,  the  rejected  Satan  has  sent  against  them  his  disciples  in
                           different guises and forms in fields of religion, education, politics, culture, sports,
                           entertainment  and  different  walks  of  life.  Therefore,  it  is  necessary  for  human
                           beings  to  train  their  selves  and  get  rid  of  animal-characteristics.  As  Allah
                           Almighty  says  in  the  Quran:  "Satan  can  misguide  only  those  people  who  make
                           him their guardian", He also says: “Satan cannot have any effect on my servants”.
                           Allah has not left this universe without a guide. He has sent Prophets for guidance
                           of  mankind  in  every  period  according  to  the  needs  of  the  time.  Quran  and  the
                           conduct of the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) are the best models for getting
                           rid of satanic attributes.
                           It is necessary to know that Satan never makes a person do an illegal act, rather he
                           brings him near the illegal act and leaves him there. If attraction towards the sin
                           overcomes the person, he himself keeps on going toward it. We will mention and
                           analyze  it  in  details  later  in  this  article.  Hence  in  order  to  avoid  this  attraction
                           (towards  sins)  self-purification  is  necessary.  Due  to  importance  of  self-
                           purification, we have selected this topic for research.
                           In  this  article  we  have  tried  to  use  the  Quranic  verses  and  hadiths  as  much  as
                           possible and to mention different points of view of other authors for description
                           too.  Due  to  lack  of  books  and  resources  we  have  mentioned  some  things  from
                           other  books  which  were  mentioned  there  along  with  the  references.  We  have
                           presented  a  list  of  those  books  at  the  end.  As  the  year  of  publication  of  some
                           books  was  not  mentioned  on  their  title,  therefore  we  have  mentioned  their
                           respective publishers as reference.
                           It is not a virtue that a person does not perform a sin due to absence of eyes or
                           does not perform a forbidden act due to lack of hands or he is unable to take steps
                           towards sins due to lack of feet, rather it will be a great success if a person retains
                           himself from illegal deeds despite having ability and temptation to perform them.
                           If we will protect ourselves from sins in our early age only then we will be able to
                           support the truth in our practical lives in future.
