Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is the bath on Friday prescribed before the first adhan of Fajr? And is the action of the one who does not bathe until after the Friday prayer valid?
Answer:
Bathing on Friday is done on the day of Friday; it is not done at night, nor on the night of Friday. It is done on the day of Friday, and it is performed when going to the prayer. This is the best, in order to remove the odors and sweat on him and to clean himself for gathering with the people, with the Muslims, for the Friday prayer. This is the best. And if he delays and bathes after the Friday prayer, he will receive the reward, if Allah wills, but doing it when going to the prayer is better. Yes.
