Purity is a beautiful word that is pleasing to the eye, and a quality which everyone wishes to both acquire and maintain. From an Islamic perspective, purity has a general meaning. Thus it may mean, on one hand, physical cleanliness which is the purity (of the body) from perceptible filth, or ritual purification. On the other hand, it may mean spiritual purity which is the purity of the self from vices, sins and abandoning disobedience to the Creator, and getting used to good deeds and words.
