The Prophet Muhammad (SAWS)[2] recommended in a hadith [3] that Muslims bathe on Fridays, use a siwak (natural toothbrush)[4] to brush the teeth and perfume the body. He (SAWS) also specified the maximum time period that should lapse between baths, recommending that Muslims bathe fully every seven days.
Scholars’ categorized washing or bathing into seventeen separate groups, demonstrating the importance of cleanliness. Islam encouraged the regular cleaning of parts of the body where diseases can flourish and dirt and germs can build up.
