The Mustaḥabbāt of Jumu’aĥ include proceeding to offer Ṣalāt-ul-Jumu’aĥ in initial time, using Miswāk, wearing nice white clothes, applying oil and fragrance sitting in the first Ṣaf (row); while having a bath is Sunnaĥ. (Fatāwā 'Ālamgīrī, vol. 1, pp. 149 – Ghunyaĥ, pp. 559)
Ḥakīm-ul-Ummat Muftī Aḥmad Yār Khān عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الْـحَـنَّان has stated, ‘Some scholars رَحِمَـهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی say that having a bath on Friday is a Sunnaĥ for Friday Ṣalāĥ, not for Friday itself, (therefore) having a bath on Friday is not a Sunnaĥ for those for whom Ṣalāt-ul-Jumu’aĥ is not Farḍ.
According to some scholars رَحِمَـهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی, one should have bath on Friday close to the time of Ṣalāt-ul-Jumu’aĥ so that he offers the Ṣalāĥ with the same Wuḍū (made during the bath). However, the most authentic verdict is that the time for Friday’s bath starts from the break of dawn.’ (Mirāĥ, vol. 2, pp. 334)
The foregoing account also clarifies that Friday’s bath is not a Sunnaĥ for women, travellers etc. for whom Friday Ṣalāĥ is not Wājib.
