What is the ruling on using perfumes and body sprays containing Alcohol, Alcohol Denat, or SD Alcohol 39 C?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
What is runling of Shariah regarding the use of perfumes and body sprays containing Alcohol, Alcohol Denat or SD Alcohol 39 C? Can we offer salah by wearing these type of perfumes?

Answer

(Fatwa: 767/767=J)

If the above mentioned alcohols are prepared by vegetables or petrol (other then grapes and dates) then the perfumes containing such alcohols are allowed and salah with such perfumes will be valid. But, if the alcohol is prepared by grapes or dates then it is impure and every perfume or body spray containing it will be unlawful and salah will be invalid with it if it is in a quantity which prevents salah.
