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

وَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «قَلِّمُوا أَظْفَارَكُمْ يَوْمَ اَلثَّلاَثَاءِ وَ اِسْتَحِمُّوا يَوْمَ اَلْأَرْبِعَاءِ ' وَ أَصِيبُوا مِنَ اَلْحِجَامَةِ حَاجَتَكُمْ يَوْمَ اَلْخَمِيسِ وَ تَطَيَّبُوا بِأَطْيَبِ طِيبِكُمْ يَوْمَ اَلْجُمُعَةِ.
Imam عليه السلام said: "Trim your nails on Tuesday, bathe on Wednesday, fulfil your need for cupping (hijama) on Thursday, and use your best fragrance on Jumu’ah."
