Q
Can Muslims use hair oil with alcoholic content of 2.2 %v/v?
Answer
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger.
Answering your question, Sheikh Mustafa Umar, President of California Islamic University, states:
The alcohol contained in hair oil is most likely synthetic alcohol, which is pure. Only alcoholic drinks like wine and beer are impure, and these are almost never mixed into hair oil. So it is fine to use this hair oil.
Almighty Allah knows best.
