Question:
What is the ruling regarding applying perfume on the ihraam
before making the intention and the talbiyyah?
Response:
It is not befitting to apply perfume on the ihraam, rather,
the sunnah is to apply the perfume on the body such as the
head, the beard and the armpits, and other such places. As
for the ihraam, then do not apply perfume on them for that
which the Prophet (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) said: ((Do not wear clothing which
has been 'touched' by az-za'faraan or al-wars (i.e. types
of perfume).)) So, the sunnah is to apply perfume on the body
only and as for the ihraam, then perfume is not to be applied
on it. And if it has been, then it is not to be worn until
it is washed or changed (for a cleaner one).
