Assalm alaikum,
From your previous fatwaa, I understood that deodrant containing alchohal made of dates and grapes are prohibited.
when we see the ingredient part of the deodrant, it just says ” Alcohal Denat”. How can we find out this denatured alchohal is made up of dates and grapes or not?
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Muhtaram,
You understanding is correct.
“Alcohol Denat” is not pure alcohol, rather it is synthetic alcohol. Therefore, it is permissible for one to use deodorants made from “Alcohol Denat”.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
