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

وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «اَلْحِنَّاءُ يَذْهَبُ بِالسَّهَكِ وَ يَزِيدُ فِي مَاءِ اَلْوَجْهِ وَ يُطَيِّبُ اَلنَّكْهَةَ وَ يُحَسِّنُ اَلْوَلَدَ.
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Henna removes the odors, increases radiance in the face, improves breath, and beautifies one's offspring."
