The "purified ones" in the noble verse carry several meanings: among them, "its taste and benefit are not found except by one who believes in it," and also one who is pure from ritual impurity (janaba) and minor ritual impurity (). The word "purified ones" includes purity of the heart, purity from minor ritual impurity, and purity from filth.
