The Ritual Bath of Jumu’ah, Entering the Bathhouse, Its Etiquette, and Teachings on Cleanliness and Beautification
قَالَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «غَسْلُ اَلرَّأْسِ بِالْخِطْمِيِّ يَذْهَبُ بِالدَّرَنِ وَ يُنَقِّي اَلْأَقْذَاءَ.
The Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام said: "Washing the head with Al-khatmi (a type of herbal shampoo or marshmallow root) removes dirt and purifies impurities”.
