Question
Is musk allowed in Islam?
Answer
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions.
No doubt that Musk is the purest of the perfumes. Prophet Muhammad (Blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) praised musk. Al-Tirmizi and Abu Dawood narrated from Abu Said (
) that Prophet Muhammad (Blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said about musk: “It is the purest of all your perfumes”. Al-Bukhari in his “History”, Nasai and al-Tirmizi narrated from Muhammad bin Ali, he said: I asked Aisha (
): “Did Prophet Muhammad (Blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to put on a perfume?”. She answered: “Yes, with the best of the male perfume: Musk and ambergris”. Nasai reported it as follows: Prophet Muhammad (Blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to put on the best of the male perfumes i.e. Musk and ambergris and used to say: “the purest of all perfumes is Musk”. Allah knows the best.
