If you know someone personally, I don't feel it too uncouth to bring to their attention such a matter as obvious bad body odour. Of course, the manner in which the message is conveyed is of utmost importance. You can't go in and say 'Damn, did you know you stink?!' Perhaps buy them some body spray or deoderant as a gift; strike up a conversation with them re the subject, without actually making it too obvious that you are concerned about them specifically - most intelligent people will 'get it'. Perhaps they're not aware of the matter as no-one has ever mentioned it to them. Maybe they'll even thank you for the hint.

Kuri you can't politely tell someone they smell vile. Excuse me sis but you smell of B/o. Don't take offence, i'm only doing dawah for your own good. The sister would either freak, get very embarrassed and move away or start crying.

You can tell your mate if they're a bit sweaty but you can't say such things to strangers..least i couldn't. Alhamdulilah for niqabs loool.

But this is a good topic, hygiene is given the upmost importance in Islam.

actually telling people such is normal in madressa.....there are ways of saying it politely...ive seen it ,but personally i wouldnt be able to do it

I really regret saying this. Mostly because I know you are going to love it.

No, she loves dolphins. So much so I dished out 100 - each, on a vacation once to swm with them.

..it was kinda fun though...

She has them on everything, keychains, her high school bookbag, even on her AIM icon.
