Shower Before Prayer
Question
Is it permissible to shower before the evening prayer? And before other prayers?
Answer
It is permissible, but one should not take a bath. This is unless one has made a vow before Mincha and Maariv prayers, but before the Shacharit prayer, it is forbidden even to shower unless it is difficult for him to pray without it.
