The Ritual Bath of Jumu’ah, Entering the Bathhouse, Its Etiquette, and Teachings on Cleanliness and Beautification
وَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «حَلْقُهُ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ نَتْفِهِ وَ طَلْيُهُ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ حَلْقِهِ.»
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Shaving (unwanted hair) is better than plucking them and using Nuura (depilatory paste) is better than shaving them."
