Can women use perfume?
✔ Response
الحمد لله، والصلاة والسلام علىٰ رسول الله، أما بعد:
◈ The use of perfume containing alcohol is not permissible, as most commercial perfumes contain alcohol-based ingredients.
Therefore, women should avoid using such perfumes.
هٰذَا مَا عِندِي وَاللّٰهُ أَعْلَمُ بِالصَّوَابِ
This is what I know; and Allah knows best what is correct.
