حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، أَنَّ أُنَاسًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ جَاءُوا ، فَقَالُوا : يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَتَرَى الْغُسْلَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَاجِبًا ؟ قَالَ : لَا ، وَلَكِنَّهُ أَطْهَرُ وَخَيْرٌ لمن اغتسل ، ومن لم يغتسل فليس عليه بواجب ، " وَسَأُخْبِرُكُمْ كَيْفَ بَدْءُ الْغُسْلِ ، كَانَ النَّاسُ مَجْهُودِينَ يَلْبَسُونَ الصُّوفَ وَيَعْمَلُونَ عَلَى ظُهُورِهِمْ وَكَانَ مَسْجِدُهُمْ ضَيِّقًا مُقَارِبَ السَّقْفِ إِنَّمَا هُوَ عَرِيشٌ ، فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي يَوْمٍ حَارٍّ وَعَرِقَ النَّاسُ فِي ذَلِكَ الصُّوفِ حَتَّى ثَارَتْ مِنْهُمْ رِيَاحٌ آذَى بِذَلِكَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا ، فَلَمَّا وَجَدَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تِلْكَ الرِّيحَ ، قَالَ : أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، إِذَا كَانَ هَذَا الْيَوْمَ فَاغْتَسِلُوا وَلْيَمَسَّ أَحَدُكُمْ أَفْضَلَ مَا يَجِدُ مِنْ دُهْنِهِ وَطِيبِهِ " ، قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : ثُمَّ جَاءَ اللَّهُ بِالْخَيْرِ ، وَلَبِسُوا غَيْرَ الصُّوفِ وَكُفُوا الْعَمَلَ وَوُسِّعَ مَسْجِدُهُمْ وَذَهَبَ بَعْضُ الَّذِي كَانَ يُؤْذِي بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا مِنَ الْعَرَقِ .
Amr bin Abi Amr and Ikrimah reported: Some people of Iraq came and said: Ibn Abbas, do you regard taking a bath on Friday as obligatory ? He said: No, it is only a means of cleanliness, and is better for one who washes oneself. Anyone who does not take a bath, it is not essential for him. I inform you how the bath (on Friday) commenced. The people were poor and used to wear woolen clothes, and would carry loads on their backs. Their mosque was small and its rood was lowered down. It was a sort of trellis of vine. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ once came out on a hot day and the people perspired profusely in the woolen clothes so much so that foul smell emitted from them and it caused trouble to each other. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ found the foul smell, he said: O people, when this day (Friday) comes, you should take bath and every one should anoint the best oil and perfume one has. Ibn Abbas then said: Then Allah, the Exalted, provided wealth (to the people) and they wore clothes other than the woolen, and were spared from work, and their mosque became vast. The foul smell that caused trouble to them became non-existent.

Hadith Commentary:
The hadith of Salman al-Farisi (rahimahullah) regarding oil and perfume has been mentioned above; it is likely that Ibn Abbas (radi Allahu anhu) was not aware of it.

Shaykh Abdul Sattar al-Hammad
Hadith Commentary:
Imam Bukhari rahimahullah, after mentioning the hadith narrated from Salman radi Allahu anhu, has cited the narration of Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu to clarify that, apart from the ritual bath (ghusl) on Friday, the rest of the recommended acts—such as applying oil to the hair, using perfume—do not have as much emphasis. However, there is great emphasis on performing the ritual bath (ghusl). Furthermore, these narrations indicate that Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu had some hesitation regarding the use of perfume and similar things, even though in one narration he himself reports from the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that if perfume is available, one should use it.
The commentators have given several answers to this:
➊ The narration from Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu in which perfume is mentioned is weak.
(Fath al-Bari: 2/480)
➋ It is possible that Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu forgot the narration regarding perfume.
➌ Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu may not have been aware of the hadith of Salman radi Allahu anhu.
➍ Since the perfumes of men and women are different, Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu may not have been fully satisfied regarding the use of perfume, lest men go to the mosque wearing the colorful perfumes of women.
And Allah knows best.

Shaykh Maulana Abdul Aziz Alvi
Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: The purpose of ritual bath (ghusl) is to cleanse oneself from dirt and filth so that others are not harmed by one’s sweat; therefore, one should use the tooth-stick (miswak) to remove bad breath from the mouth.
According to Imam Ishaq rahimahullah, Imam Dawud rahimahullah, and Ibn Hazm rahimahullah, using the tooth-stick (miswak) is obligatory for Jumu‘ah (Friday prayer).
In fact, according to Imam Ishaq rahimahullah, using the tooth-stick (miswak) is obligatory for every prayer.
If a person deliberately does not use the tooth-stick (miswak), then his prayer is not valid.
According to Ibn Hazm rahimahullah, using the tooth-stick (miswak) is Sunnah for prayers other than Jumu‘ah, and according to most scholars, whether it is Jumu‘ah or any other prayer, using the tooth-stick (miswak) is Sunnah, not obligatory or compulsory.
