Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. He says: I put perfume on my ihram clothes at the miqat before I entered the state of ihram for 'Umrah, and then I entered the state of ihram afterwards. Is there anything required of me for that?
Answer:
The clothes are not to be perfumed; the ihram clothes are not to be perfumed. Rather, the perfume is to be on the body, on the body only. So if you perfumed the ihram clothes, you must wash the perfume off. You must hasten to wash the perfume off them. But since this is something that has passed and ended, and you were unaware of the ruling, there is nothing required of you, and praise be to Allah. But in the future, do not perfume the ihram clothes, and if you perfume them or perfume falls on them, wash them until the perfume is gone. Yes.
