The Shaykh : All right.
The questioner : As for perfumes like castor oil, cologne, and light amyl alcohol, is it permissible to use them to perfume the mosque?
The Shaykh : What?
The questioner : Is it permissible to spray them in the place where the worshippers prostrate?
The Shaykh : It is better not to do so if they contain a large proportion of alcohol, because the scholars differ on this matter. However, if the proportion is small, there is nothing wrong with it.
