Is there a prophetic hadith indicating that the believer is clean in clothes, body, house and heart?

There is no stating that a believer is clean in clothes, body, house, and heart. Rather, there are texts indicating the permissibility and desirability of adornment and beauty, such as the Almighty's saying: "Say, 'Who has forbidden the adornment of Allah which He has produced for His servants and the good things of provision?'" and the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Indeed, Allah is beautiful and loves beauty." As for the hadiths that state that Islam is built upon cleanliness and that only the clean will enter Paradise, scholars have declared them fabricated.
