Using products that contain alcohol

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

Is it permissible to use chapsticks and mascaras that contain alcohol?

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Wa Alaykum Assalam wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuhu,

In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful & Compassionate

Yes, it is permitted to use such external products if they contain alcohol—as this is invariably synthetic alcohol and not ‘wine.’ As for consuming alcohol, in any form, it is strictly forbidden except when it is in medicine or simply incidentally present (as opposed to being a ‘sought after’ ingredient).
