Applying Perfume After Entering Ihram for 'Umrah and Renewing the Intention
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: We went to the miqat and entered ihram for 'Umrah. After we had entered ihram, one of the brothers applied perfume to us while we were ignorant of the ruling. So we told him that it is not permissible, and we renewed our intention from the beginning, and we did not wash off the perfume.
Answer:
No, this is the opposite. It is obligatory that you wash off the perfume, and you owe nothing. You washed off the perfume, and nothing is required of you. As for the ihram, once it is established, it is not invalidated. Even if you had invalidated it, it would not be invalidated. So you made a mistake in this, but your 'Umrah is valid, if Allah wills, and your second ihram has no value. You are on your first ihram. Yes.
