Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is alcohol impure or pure, especially since it is used in perfumes?
Answer:
If alcohol is consumed and its effect is no longer present, that is one ruling. But if its effect remains, it is impure. If it is dissolved and alcohol is found in it, that is not permissible; it is impure. However, if it is dissolved and nothing is found in it, there is no ruling on it, because it has been consumed and lost.
