Bathing Obligatory for Attendance

The Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “The person who comes to offer prayers in the Friday congregation should bathe himself first.” [Bukhari]

Clean and purify yourself on Fridays. Bathe and adorn yourself as best you can before heading out to the Masjid. Your presence should enhance the gathering in Allah’s house and not be a source of discomfort to Allah’s other guests.
