Question:
What is the ruling on inhaling incense and perfume for the fasting person?
Answer:
It is not recommended to inhale it, because some scholars hold that it invalidates the fast. However, if a person smells perfume in the mosque or in the house without inhaling anything harmful, praise be to Allah. But as for inhaling incense, some scholars hold that it breaks the fast, so it should be avoided.
