The Perfume Containing Some Alcohol
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q49: Is it permissible to use perfume that contains some alcohol?
A49: It is permissible to use perfumes that contain alcohol; because the original ruling for things is purity until evidence establishes their impurity, and there is no evidence of its impurity from the Qur'an, the Sunnah, or the practice of the Companions. Furthermore, the prohibition of a thing does not necessitate that it is ritually impure; harmful things are forbidden even if they are not ritually impure, such as poison.
