On this World Water Day, and any other day, remember to wash your hands regularly with water and soap or with an alcohol-based hand gel. Hand hygiene is essential to containing the spread of COVID-19, as well as other infectious diseases.

In some parts of the world there is little or no awareness of good hygiene practices and their role in reducing the spread of disease. However, it is often the case that even when people do have knowledge of good hygiene behaviour, they lack the soap, safe water and washing facilities they need to make positive changes to protect themselves and their community.

What does the Quran say about water? The Quran says every living thing is made of water.

“Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing? Then will they not believe?” – Surah Al-Anbya [21:30]

This #WorldWaterDay, let’s show our best hand hygiene moments to fight #COVID19.
