Is it recommended for a menstruating woman to bathe on Friday out of reverence for the day, even if the bath is not for purification from menstruation?

A menstruating woman's ritual bath () for menstruation is not valid before her period ends, because cessation is a condition for the validity of ghusl. It is for her to perform the ghusl for Friday prayer, according to some scholars who hold that it is sunnah for everyone. The majority opinion is that it is not sunnah for women unless they attend the Jummah prayer.
