Good, bad, ugly of perfume

Perfume was a favourite thing of Prophet Muhammad. He liked it because it gives a sense of joy and offers a countenance of cheerfulness.

It gives a joy to others who come in contact with the person who uses it.

Perfume supplies wisdom to the brain if it is constantly used.

It is useful for a man who mixes in society because bad odour is always abominable.

Perfumed oil or otto or extract of juice may be lawfully used but perfume mixed with spirit is abominable.

The perfume of women should be colourless but with colour. Women should not use perfume when they are in congregational prayer.

The Holy Prophet had perfume in his head and beard.

It is good to use perfume because it is a fragrant liquid which gives a pleasant smell, especially to the body.
