Brilio.net - Mukena is worn by Muslims to perform worship. Usually mukenas are made from light and cool materials so they are comfortable when worn. A mukena set consists of a top and bottom which functions to cover the entire body. Because they are used for prayer almost every day, mukenas are prone to getting dirty.
This dirt can come from sweat. If you don't wash it immediately, over time the sweat stains can leave yellow stains on the head of your mukena . Moreover, if the mukena is white, the stain will be clearly visible. As a result, the mukena looks dull and dirty.
These stubborn yellow stains tend to be difficult to clean even if you brush them with detergent or soap. A number of people ended up trying various methods to remove the stain, including using laundry bleach.
After washing with bleach, the yellow stain can indeed disappear, but if used continuously it can also damage the fabric fibers on the mukena. So, to be safer, you can also apply the tricks shared by YouTube users the Errando family. He admitted that he did not use bleach and only relied on simple ingredients, including kitchen ingredients.

If the yellow stain has disappeared, then wash the mucena as usual with detergent and water. Put 1 tablespoon of powdered detergent in the bucket, then add water until the mukena is completely submerged.
"Soak for 5-10 minutes, then brush and rinse until the water is clean and there is no more foam," he said.
