filthiness
State of grime
Filthiness is the quality or state of being filthy—extremely dirty, foul, or morally corrupt.
The word covers both physical uncleanliness the filthiness of the abandoned building and moral degradation the filthiness of his thoughts.
It appears often in religious contexts condemning sin or impurity.
