These are my Household (Progeny), please keep all impurity away from them". The narration of this event is called 'Hadis-e-Kisa'.
It was then that the Ayat-e-Tatheer was revealed: "Innama Ureedullaho Leyuzheba Ankumurrijsa Ahlal Bayte Wa Yutahherakum Tatheera" which means: "O People of the House, Allah wants to keep all kinds of uncleanness (impurity) away from you and to purify you thoroughly".
