<b>Guidance from the Hadiths:</b><br> 1) It is recommended and part of the Prophet’s Sunnah to accept a gift of perfume, unless a person gets annoyed by its smell.<br> 2) A person should smell good, in accordance with the Prophet’s guidance.<br> <br> <b>Benefit:</b><br> A good smell pleases the soul. Angels like good smells, while devils turn away from them. It is well known that mental strength increases by perfumes and pleasant scents. Indeed, the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him), who came with the perfect guidance, urged people to apply perfume. What an excellent Shariah!
