Tazkiyah (Purification)

Tazkiah (تزكية) is an Arabic-Islamic term alluding to "tazkiyah al-nafs" meaning "sanctification" or "purification of the self". This refers to the process of transforming the nafs (carnal self or desires) from its deplorable state of self-centrality through various spiritual stages towards the level of purity and submission to the Will of Allah.

The key of the peace of mind is remembering Allah in the proper way. As we read in Quran "Surely only by remembering Allah hearts gain peace" Surat no. 13 Verse no. 28. All mental problems can be tackled and cured by sincere remembering of Allah. It is recommended to recite Athaan (Azaan) at home or wherever you are on every time of Salah. Reciting Athaan has got benefits for mental health. Reciting Quran and Du'a or listening to their recitation helps a lot in gaining peace of mind. A great source of Du'a is Al Sahifa Al Sajjadiya and other supplications narrated by the Holy Prophet and Ahlulbayt. Glorifying Allah during the day and night especially before sunset and before sunrise has got great benefits as we read in the hadith that it is recommended to repeat Subhanallah WalHamdulilah Wa La Ilaaha Ila Allah Wa Allahu Akbar 10 times before sunrise and before sunset. It is also recommended to perform Wudhu before going to bed so that your sleep will be peaceful and you will get the reward of worshiping Allah for the whole night. You should seek the prayers and blessings of your parents as their prayers in your favor are very important and more likely to be accepted by Allah as long as you keep serving them and making them happy with you, even if they are not alive you should visit their grave and pray to Allah near their grave.

Wassalam.

Beside your medical hygiene , touching any dry item with your dry hands will not transfer any Nijasah (impurity) to you. If you touch a wet Najis item, or a dry wet item with you wet hands,by our hands will be Najis. If you touch other items with your Najis dry hands, it will not be impure.

Bismillah, 

Asalamu Alaykom, 

If you are 100% sure that the chocolate packet touched a part of the floor that definitely became najjs, and that the chocolate packet had moisture on it, then yes it would be najis. This would easy to purify as you could merely put the packet under a tap or just remove the chocolates. If however the floor was dry and so was the packet, then it isn't najis. 
 

May Allah grant you success

Just wash your hands with water, one time if water is connected to tab or big quantity, and two times if water is in small quantity. Obviously, no Najis material should be on your hands.
