Distance Yourself from Filthy Words
The term 'Khabith' refers to all things vile, disgusting, and repulsive, such as throw up, excretion, pus, wasted metal, or unusable animal parts. It symbolizes the essence of filth and repugnance. Allah urges to distance oneself from such words with a stench so repulsive that it leads one to physically avoid stepping near it. By not mentioning Himself in proximity to 'Khabith,' Allah intensifies the rhetoric, highlighting that He is pure and distant from filth. The mention of a filthy word signifies being spiritually, intellectually, and ideologically distant from Allah.
