Oftentimes we hear people complaining about one person or another having body odour. The funny thing is that sometimes, the one complaining also oozes a bad smell, but no one has ever told them.
How Do You Know You Don’t Smell Bad?
So, do you have body odour? I mean you who’s reading this right now. Before you scream “No, God forbid,” let me ask you this. How do you know that you do not smell bad? Is it because you use perfumes? Because no one has ever complained?
The Sniff Test
Well, there’s a way you can be sure that you’re not breaking people’s noses whenever you’re in their company. Do this. Immediately after taking your bath, as you walk out of the bathroom, go to the clothes you took off your body before going to bathe. That is, all the clothes including the underwear you removed from your body when you were going to bath.
Time to Sniff
Now that you’re fresh from the bathroom, start sniffing them one after the other. (Dey smell am one by one). Whatever you perceive is what everyone has been perceiving from you. Remember, your body smelled into the clothes.
Taking Action
Now, if you don’t like what you smell, there are ways to get better. Don’t feel bad, but take proactive measures to remedy your situation.
Seeking Solutions
Search the internet for keywords like “How to remove body odour,” “Body odour causes and solutions,” “How to smell nice every day”. You can also watch YouTube videos on this topic. Taking these steps can help you address any body odour issues you may have.
Lifestyle and Diet Considerations
You might also want to look at your lifestyle and food. Sometimes, the culprit might be in the food you eat.
Perfume and Islam
Perfume and Islamic Principles
To my ladies (In Islam), I understand that wearing perfumes outside our homes is prohibited. But, that is if non-mahrams perceive it from us.
The Use of Musk Tahara
Musk Tahara is mild. Except you’re going to hug someone, you’re the only one perceiving it, so long as you apply just a little. It is an excellent option for maintaining cleanliness and freshness, especially after menstruation.
In conclusion, addressing body odour is essential for personal hygiene and social interactions. Don’t rely solely on perfumes to mask unpleasant smells. Instead, take proactive steps to eliminate the root causes and maintain a pleasant scent. If you’re concerned about perfume use in accordance with Islamic principles, consider mild options like Musk Tahara for personal hygiene. Your effort to smell nice every day will be appreciated by those around you.
