    Give me a tip please!

    I have a co-worker who smells very bad (body odor), many people have given hm hints, but he seems clueless. I even told him that hygiene is part of a muslim life.... now I can't stand be with him in the same room.... what would you do to get him to take the matter seriously and clean up

    dont be so judgemental because if the problem is that bad, then it could be disorder in his body that he cant help even if he showered in perfume.

    fortunely, there is medicine for this but maybe you can have him talk to his doctor.

    I understand what you are saying, but if I put you in the same room with him or if you invite him to ride in your car, you will change your mind... believe me. I am asking about tips to help him understand that many people are avoiding him because of his issue.

    salam, ya Yazou,

    It is a sensitive problem, and there could be reasons unconnected with hygiene causing your colleague's condition so diplomacy is required - and I know that cannot be easy if you're just about suffocating. Take a look here and see how some people weighed up the issue.

    well thats what im telling you. maybe he doesnt understand that he may have a biological problem and you can bring that up to him.
