Prohibitions of Ihram and the Ruling on Using Fragrant Substances

Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. From al-Qasim, one of the female listeners says: Fashin Maim 'Ayn asks about the prohibitions of ihram, specifically the use of scented soap and cream, and the like. Does that affect the ihram or not?

Answer:
Among the prohibitions of ihram is touching perfume. It is not permissible for him to apply perfume or touch any perfume as long as he is in the state of ihram. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) only used perfume for his ihram before entering the state of ihram, and for his exit from ihram before circumambulating the House (peace and blessings be upon him). And when one of his companions died while he was standing at 'Arafah, he said (peace and blessings be upon him): And regarding the person in ihram, he said: "He does not wear a garment that has been touched by musk or saffron." All of this indicates that perfume is prohibited for the person in ihram as long as he is in the state of ihram. As for fragrant items like soap and fragrant oils, the person in ihram should also avoid them if the scent of perfume is apparent from them.
Because they are accompanied by perfume and the scent of perfume is apparent from them when the person in ihram touches them, so he should avoid them, such as scented soap and fragrant oils. The person in ihram should avoid them. As for non-scented soap and non-fragrant oils, there is no harm in the person in ihram using them. Yes.
