The questioner:
In his other question, he asks: What is the ruling on using white alcohol to clean some wounds? And does it invalidate the ablution?
The Shaykh:
If this alcohol is intoxicating, it is not permissible to use it because it is ritually impure, as the correct view is that what intoxicates is ritually impure and forbidden. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Abi Dawud 3874Da'if (Al-Albani). Therefore, it is not permissible to use any alcohol or drink that intoxicates, or anything else of the kind. Yes.
The questioner:
He asks: Does it invalidate the ablution?
The Shaykh:
It does not invalidate the ablution, but one must wash what it touched because it is ritually impure. Yes.
