The Ruling on a Woman Wearing Perfume When Going Out
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman goes with the driver to parties and gatherings while wearing perfume, claiming that she is perfuming the children with her using the same perfume she uses, and she puts them in the car before her, then she rides after them. What is the ruling on this action?
Answer:
It is not permissible for her to wear perfume when going out, because this causes fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). She should not perfume the children either, because that causes fitnah. As for the children, if they are of the age of discernment, such that seclusion with a non-mahram is not considered a sin for them, then there is no harm. Yes.
