Using Non-Scented Creams Whilst In Ihraam

Hajj And Umrah, Ihraam

Question

Can a person use non-scented creams whilst in the state of Ihraam?

Answer

A person may use non-scented creams whilst in the state of Ihraam. However, one should abstain from its usage without a valid reason, as the essence of Ihraam is to remain in an unkempt state and manifest one’s weakness and submissiveness.
