Dubbed the "dirtiest man in the world" by the media, he has died aged 94 after taking his first bath in decades.
It has been more than half a century since Amu Haji refused to use soap and water for fear that it would hurt me to take a bath.
The Iranians, who lived in the southern province of Persia, had earlier rejected attempts to get their villagers to bathe.
According to local media reports, Amu Haji finally took a bath a few months ago when the pressure was too much.
Iran's state news agency IRNA reported that the elderly man fell ill shortly after taking a shower and died on Sunday.
In an interview with Tehran Times in 2014, AA said that he likes porcupine meat. They also stated that they live in a small house that their neighbors bought for them in a village called Dejgah.
He explained at the time that the "emotional obstacles" he faced in his youth led to this unusual choice of not bathing.
Years of not washing their bodies has left their skin covered in stains, IRNA reported. He reported that their food was rotting meat and their drinking water was unsanitary.
Amu Haji also liked to smoke. They were seen smoking more than one cigarette at a time.
The news agent explained that the attempt to give them a bath or clean drinking water made the person sad.
The issue of holding the record for the longest time without bathing has been a controversial issue. AAA In 2009 there were reports of an Indian man who went 35 years without washing or brushing his teeth. It is not known what happened to this Indian.
