Question:
He says: I entered the state of ihram from Abiyar, meaning at Dhu al-Halayf near Madinah. I entered ihram and then used perfume. What is the ruling on using it?
Answer:
It is a mistake to use perfume after intending to enter ihram; it is forbidden and not permissible. However, the ignorant person is excused. So if you used it while forgetting or out of ignorance, you are excused for that. But if you did it intentionally, using perfume intentionally after entering ihram, then you owe a fidyah (ransom payment). You owe a fidyah in which you have a choice between slaughtering a sheep in Makkah, feeding six poor people in Makkah, or fasting for three days. You have a choice among these three things if you applied perfume intentionally after entering ihram. Yes.
