Question:
We thank Your Eminence the Shaykh for these words. The struggle (jihad) is the word of the watcher. From the questions, some have been repeated in previous nights, but we will address what we can, if Allah wills. A woman asks: Does the alcohol in perfume, agarwood, and jawa break the fast of the one fasting or not?
Answer:
All types of agarwood do not break the fast of the one fasting if he does not inhale it. However, he should not inhale it or put it in his nose to inhale it, because some of it, if inhaled, breaks the fast according to some scholars. But if he smells it from a distance without inhaling it, there is no harm, whether it is agarwood, jawa, or others. Yes.
