Yes, you can pray Namaz (Salah) while wearing perfume. The use of perfume, in general, is permissible in Islam.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
-
Permissibility of Perfume: Using perfumes is generally allowed for Muslims, both men and women (though there are specific guidelines regarding women wearing perfume in public).
-
Alcohol Content in Perfumes: Even if a perfume contains alcohol, it is generally considered permissible to use and does not invalidate your prayer. The key reason for this is that the alcohol used in perfumes is not considered najs (impure) in itself. The Islamic prohibition mainly concerns the consumption of alcohol.
-
Cleanliness for Prayer: The primary requirement for prayer is that your body, clothing, and the place of prayer are clean from najasat (impurities). Since alcohol in perfume is not generally considered najs, its presence doesn't render your clothes or body impure.
Therefore, wearing perfume does not prevent you from praying Namaz, and it is permissible to do so.
