The Ritual Bath of Jumu’ah, Entering the Bathhouse, Its Etiquette, and Teachings on Cleanliness and Beautification

وَ رُوِيَ عَنِ اَلصَّادِقِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ - «إِنَّمَا أَكْرَهُ اَلنَّظَرَ إِلَى عَوْرَةِ اَلْمُسْلِمِ فَأَمَّا اَلنَّظَرُ إِلَى عَوْرَةِ مَنْ لَيْسَ بِمُسْلِمٍ مِثْلُ اَلنَّظَرِ إِلَى عَوْرَةِ اَلْحِمَارِ.
On the authority of Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام that He said: "Indeed, looking at the private parts of a Muslim is disliked, and looking at the private parts of a non-Muslim is like looking at the private parts of a donkey."
