The Dark Danger

The Idea that Make-up, Grooming,

Cleanliness and Looking Attractive

Are Unlawful

Fabricated Hadiths that Prohibit Pleasant Scent

The prayer of a woman who uses perfume for this mosque
is not accepted until she returns and takes a bath like that
of sexual intercourse (perfectly). (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book
33, Hadith 4162)

If a woman uses perfume and passes the people so that
they may get its odour, she is so-and-so, meaning severe
remarks. (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 33, Hadith 4161)

If a woman wears perfume for anyone other than her hus-
band, her prayer will not be accepted unless she washes
that scent from her body as if washing off sexual inter-
course. (Man La Yahzaruhul Faqih, v. 3, p. 440)

Using perfume for other than one's husband
brings a woman shame and fire (of hell).

(Nahj al-Fasaha, 2382)
