Whenever Ibn al-Hanafiyyah intended to enter into the state of Ihram, he would rub a high-quality mixture of perfumes (ghaliyah) on his head.

The mother of Abdur Rahman bin Qasim narrates that I saw Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) applying perfume between her hair before entering into Ihram, and then she entered into Ihram.

Hazrat Umar bin Abdul Aziz used to apply a perfume called Sulaikha at the time of putting on Ihram.

Hazrat Urwah would perfume his clothes with incense at night and would remain in those clothes; he would even go to the mosque in them and would don the ihram in those same clothes. The narrator says that drops of musk fragrance would be seen dripping from our beards while we were in the state of ihram, but he would not object to this.

Hazrat Abu al-Duha narrates that I saw the effect of fragrance in the hair and beard of Hazrat Abdullah bin Zubair, even though he was in the state of Ihram. The fragrance was so expensive that if someone else had it, he would have accumulated a lot of wealth from it.

Hazrat Ibn Zubair would perfume himself with high-quality musk incense when assuming Ihram.

Hazrat Urwah used to apply the perfumes named Zurairah and Alban at the time of putting on Ihram.

Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with both of them) did not consider it objectionable to apply perfume at the time of wearing Ihram, nor did he consider it objectionable to apply it before performing Tawaf of the House of Allah on the Day of Sacrifice.

Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that before entering into Ihram, I like to apply perfume to my head and comb it, and I prefer that its effect remains. And Hazrat Ibn Zubair says that I do not consider there to be any harm in it. And Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that I neither command it nor forbid it.

13992 - Ibn al-Zubayr said: I see no harm in it (1).
