The Ruling on Applying Perfume for Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

Question:
The Companions used to apply perfume when they went to pray, and this is one of the means of helping to attain humility in prayer. So, is it permissible for me, as a woman, to apply perfume when I pray at home?

Answer:
There is no harm in that, provided you do not have a non-mahram present. And success is from Allah.
