Using food for cosmetic purposes
Using food for cosmetic purposes
Nov 23, 2024 3:04 AM

  Allah The Almighty has created man in the best shape and form; He says (what means):

  · Using honey to remove freckles that appear on the face.

  · Using cucumbers to remove rough skin and wrinkles.

  · {It is He who Created for you all of that which is on the earth. Then He Directed Himself to the heaven, [His being above all creation], and Made them seven heavens, and He Is Knowing of all things.} [Quran 2:29]

  · It is better to use other means that are, by default, used for cosmetic purposes, as these types of food were not originally created for cosmetic purposes. This is so as to not indulge in wastefulness.

  Beautification and Adornment

  The Sharee‘ah has approved of this as indicated by the following:

  · The Prophet, , urged us to purify ourselves and made this purification a reason for being forgiven by Allah The Almighty in some cases. For instance, the Prophet, , said: “Whoever takes a bath on Friday, purifies himself as much as he can, then uses his [hair] oil or perfumes himself, then proceeds [for the Friday prayer] and does not separate two persons who are sitting together [in the mosque], then prays as much as he can according to what was predetermined by Allah and remains silent while the Imam is delivering the Khutbah, his sins between the present and the past Friday would be forgiven."[Al-Bukhari]

  Third: The basic rule for adornment and beautification is permissibility unless something that is prohibited under Sharee‘ah is used like impurities and alcohol that is part of the perfume industry with a high percentage. Also, gold and silk for men and the use of perfume for women at a time that she will pass by non-Mahram men.
