Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : I don't have anything on this; my mind is blank on the matter. Yes.
The questioner : Shaykh, regarding this perfume, it is said that it contains alcohol. Is it permissible to use it?
The Shaykh : If the proportion of alcohol is high, it is not permissible.
The questioner : If it is a small amount. Regarding it, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : No, they don't earn much. Often they write the alcohol percentage as sixty, seventy, or eighty percent for cologne, and sometimes they don't write it. This depends on the merchants who know these facts. Yes.
