It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Taking a bath on Friday is obligatory upon every adult." Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I do not deny that Muhammad bin Munkadir heard from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) the narration regarding the obligation of bathing only upon one who has had a wet dream, apart from applying perfume and using the miswak. Whereas, in the narration from his brother Abu Bakr bin Munkadir, from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him), the obligation of bathing and applying oil is mentioned from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), because Dawud bin Abi Hind narrated from Abu Zubair, from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is obligatory upon every Muslim to bathe one day in seven days, and that is the day of Friday."
