    No Not New Clothes every Day
    but to start a new clothes he used to Do it on Friday

    The Prophet SWS occupied himself in his house like a common man. As Ayesha R.A
    relates he used to wash his clothes, milch the goat and himself do the odd jobs like
    mending his garments and repairing his shoes. When asked how the Prophet occupied
    himself within his house, she replied, 'He used to keep himself busy in household chores
    but went out to offer the prayers when the time arrived."

    I would say so but it depends on one's own feelings. If somoene feels dirty everyday and its not just waswasa, then they should shower and change everyday as the most important thing is to remian clean. If someone does not feel dirty and knows he is clean and still changes and washes, etc this may fall under wastefulness.

    how did he used to wash his clothes?

    with soap or plain water??
    I think soap was invented after the time of the Prophet (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him).

    why do we use soap if it is not the prohets way??

    of course its permissble to use soap but what is more mustahabb

    to do what he did or not>??
    Because this isn't really an issue related to Deen. Also, since half of Deen is purity and soap removes dirt better than just water, why not use it? Allah knows best.

    the knowledge of things not known to him"

    Soap I think not in the way you and I see but I'm pretty sure they had some type of soap bar or block, moving to the african parts of the continent you can make soap out of perfumes like ambergris soap, lavender, henna, frankincense myrrh. Remember arabs were known for trading in different countries. From the fine silks of china to the spices. If they had oud, misk, and other oils they had soap.

    your right
    its permissible to use soap

    but isnt it better to use just water since the prophet did so so this is the sunnah and you become closer to his way?


    and whos to say soap is cleaner if the prophet was the best man alive ever and this is something he did not use?
