Arab Weather - A Muslim's faith is based on purity and cleanliness, and Muslims must wash hands before and after eating, ablution and purity before each of the five daily prayers, and based on Muslims ’desire and keenness to cleanliness, not just by sprinkling water, they are accused of the idea of making soap.

 

Muslims made solid soap by mixing oil (mostly olive oil) with an alkaline substance, then poured into molds and left to dry for use in baths. A manuscript dating back to the thirteenth century was found containing details of methods for making solid soap, and solid soap arrived in Europe with the return of the Crusaders. To their homes, but it was not in common use, until soap became an important industry in the eighteenth century, especially in Syria, and colored and fragrant bath soap and medicinal soap were produced.

 

The history of soap dates back to before Christ, where animal or vegetable fats were mixed with salts and alkaline substances to form a soap-like substance, and it was used for washing clothes and sometimes for bathing, but Muslims were the first to combine vegetable oils, sodium hydroxide and aromatic materials in soap making, where they used Herbs such as thyme and basil to add a pleasant aroma to soap. Soap arrived in England through a Muslim man from India who opened baths in Brighton in 1759 AD.
