The Ruling on Using Edible Items for Cleaning
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His Eminence the Shaykh: There are some types of shampoo and soap in the markets that are mixed with honey and yogurt. What is the ruling on using them?
There is nothing wrong with using these things to remove impurity and achieve cleanliness, but they should not be used for istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself) or istijmar (cleaning with dry material), as they contain something edible.
