==Argument from the Verse==
==Argument from the Verse==
With regard to how Aya al-Tathir implies the purity of [[Ahl al-Bayt (a)]], it is said that the word, "innamā" (Arabic: {{ia|إِنَّما}}), denotes exclusiveness, as lexicographers have stipulated. Thus, the verse shows that [[God]] exclusively wills to purify Ahl al-Bayt (a). Given Arabic grammar, the verse involves some other emphases as well. Moreover, "al-rijs" (Arabic: {{ia|الرِجسَ}}) or impurity is used with a definite article (al-) and thus it connotes any type of impurity, be it mental or practical, such as [[polytheism]], [[kufr]] (infidelity), [[nifaq]] (hypocrisy), ignorance, and [[sins]]. Thus, the verse rejects the existence of all these kinds of impurity in Ahl al-Bayt (a).<ref>Rāḍī, ''Sabīl al-nijāt'', p. 7.</ref>
