If it was indeed called muslim shower, I'd have to say I find it very oxymoronic. You know how they look down at people who shake hands with left hand? This was rooted in the fact that in old time it was difficult to find leaves or anything to wipe your butt with, and water were precious in desert. Therefore they used left hand to wipe and that's why there's lot of cutoms about you handle your hands; keep your left hand under the eating table at all times, shaking with right hands and do not rub hands together, and then some more.
