Perfume With Alcohol
Question:
Assalamo alaykom,
Is perfume containing some alcohol permissible to use? Explain in detail please.
Answer:
بسم الله الرحمن الرحميم، الحمد لله رب العالمين
وصلى الله على سيدنا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين، وبالله التوفيق
According to the Shafi’i madhhab, khamr (alcoholic beverage made of grape juice) and nabīdh (alcoholic beverages that are made from other type of juices beside grape) are haram and impure (al-Tuhfah, al-Nihayah). Therefore, ethanol derived from alcoholic beverages is also haram and impure.
The synthetic alcohol is produced through the hydration of ethylene or hydroxylation of ethyl sulphate to yield ethanol and regenerate the sulphuric acid. Here, there is no fermentation process, thus, the synthetic alcohol is pure.
Therefore, synthetic alcohol would be permissible to use and will not cause body or clothing become impure. However it is not permissible for oral intake.
And Allah ta’ala knows best.
