Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling on using scented soap after performing the rites when shaving the head?

Answer:
When shaving the head. If it has a distinct scent, it is not permissible except after exiting the state of ihram. As for if it does not have a strong scent, and because it is not considered perfume—it is called scented soap, not that it is perfume—if its scent is not strong and widespread, there is nothing wrong with using it. However, if it has a strong scent that spreads around, it is not permissible to use it. There is soap that contains no perfume; one should choose from the soap that has no perfume. Yes.
