Using Incense for the Fasting Person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What Allah willed, this incense is fitting for perfume. Is it disliked for the fasting person?
Answer:
He should not sniff it deeply. Sniffing, or inhaling deeply—meaning he should not inhale deeply—this is to avoid the difference of opinion. However, if he does not inhale deeply, and it is in his clothes or under his clothes, it does not harm him.
