Are Perfumes containing Alcohol Permissible?

fatwa-tt January 16, 2015

Question:

can i use the perfumes came from france or USA because of containing alcohol. I am from Hanafi Mazhab.

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

If the perfume contains alcohol derived from grapes or dates extract, it is impure. If it is from other sources besides grapes and dates, then it is pure.[1]

Generally the perfumes available nowadays contain synthetic alcohol, therefore pure. Such perfumes will be permissible to use.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

Mufti Arshad Ali

[1] حاشية الطحطاوي على مراقي الفلاح شرح نور الإيضاح (ص: 153)

فالغليظة كالخمر” وهي التي من ماء العنب إذا غلى واشتد وقذف بالزبد وكانت غليظة لعدم معارضة نص بنجاستها

 

الدر المختار وحاشية ابن عابدين (رد المحتار) (6/ 449)

(قَوْلُهُ وَلَوْ لِسَقْيِ دَوَابَّ) قَالَ بَعْضُ الْمَشَايِخِ لَوْ قَادَ الدَّابَّةَ إلَى الْخَمْرِ لَا بَأْسَ بِهِ، وَلَوْ نَقَلَ إلَى الدَّابَّةِ يُكْرَهُ وَكَذَا قَالُوا فِيمَنْ أَرَادَ تَخْلِيلَ الْخَمْرِ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَحْمِلَ الْخَلَّ إلَى الْخَمْرِ وَلَوْ عَكَسَ يُكْرَهُ وَهُوَ الصَّحِيحُ تَتَارْخَانِيَّةٌ (قَوْلُهُ أَوْ لِطِينٍ) أَيْ لِبَلِّ طِينٍ (قَوْلُهُ أَوْ غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ) كَامْتِشَاطِ الْمَرْأَةِ بِهَا لِيَزِيدَ بَرِيقُ شَعْرِهَا أَوْ الِاكْتِحَالِ بِهَا أَوْ جَعْلِهَا فِي سَعُوطٍ تَتَارْخَانِيَّةٌ
