What is the ruling on using incense for women

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : May Allah bless you. Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: What is the ruling on incense for the women’s section in the mosque?

Answer : There is no harm in placing incense in the place prepared for people, but a woman should not use it, because if she uses it, the incense will cling to her clothes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
(peace and blessings be upon him) said: “No woman who has used incense should attend the night prayer with us.”صلى الله عليه وسلم أي امرأة أصابت بخورا ألا تشهد معنا صلاة العشاء
May Allah bless you
