Question:
May Allah reward you. The Honorable Shaykh says: I performed the rites of 'Umrah, but after entering the state of ihram, a man put a little perfume in my hand, and I completed the rites of 'Umrah in this state. However, I returned and entered the state of ihram from the miqat a second and a third time. The question is: Is the sunnah (recommended practice) in the first 'Umrah complete? If Allah wills, and if you did not intend it?
Answer:
If you did not intend to put the perfume on your hand or on your garment, there is no harm. And if you did intend it, but you were ignorant or forgetful, then nothing is required of you, because the forgetful person and the ignorant person are not held accountable. However, in all cases, whether you were intentional, ignorant, or forgetful, you are required to remove the perfume by washing it from your garment or from your body. If you did not wash it off due to ignorance or forgetfulness, then nothing is required of you.
