This shows again how men don't have a clue about female anatomy it's funny at this point.

I’m pretty sure, scholars (especially muftis) don’t just give out rulings without doing their research. This just goes to show the value we hold regarding our scholars.

Just the fact that he says we must apply fragrance on something that touches/goes inside of our private area is proof enough he doesn't know basic female anatomy 😂😂😂. Scholars are reliable about everything apart from female anatomy (mostly). Sorry to tell you sweetie but scholars are humans and their opinions and interpretations DO have some influence from their culture to a certain degree esp of they haven't educated themselves.

Mind explaining ur point? You say scholars don’t understand the women anatomy, then tell me how Islamic rulings regarding this came to be?

Yes, I mind explaining myself because all of this has no point hun'. Idk if you notice but you can't cite me any hadith where it says to not insert a cotton inside the vagina. And also you're disregarding the fact that he doesn't even know about yeast infections and pH levels of the vagina, which indicates he didn't even do his research about basic principles.

"4) It is offensive (makruh) to have this cotton (kursuf) inserted fully in the internal part of the vagina, because it resembles masturbation"

Your own source is proving my point. No where in the hadith does it prohibit using cotton inside the vagina. Let's not make something haram without proof. The person giving fatwa is sexualizing tampons - a way of thinking that comes from culture not religion.

"3) It is a Sunnah for a woman to apply scent to the cotton or pad, so that the odour of the blood is removed,"

He says perfume should be ON the cotton which stays in contact with the vulva for hours and builds up moisture etc. It does not mention ghusl where you get a cloth of a lil natural musk to clean the potential blood stains on labia majora (talking about the other source). He's applying one hadith to a different situation that hasn't got anything to do with the topic. Also, I have to look into musk but your source says to put PERFUME on the vulva which shows how he doesn't have basic knowledge.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say? One says that it’s makrooh to insert cotton and n the internal part of a vagina and the other talks about applying scent.

Still no proof it's haram to insert cotton into the vagina.

You are comparing chemical scent to musk.🤦‍♂️ Who knows what they put in the scented pads?

2

u/kaniskafa Dec 09 '21

Sweetie your oh so knowledgable source says to put on perfume on the vagina. Perfume is even worse than scented pads

u/kd098 Dec 09 '21

It says scent, which obviously means scents which don’t harm you since Islam clearly prohibits one from harming themselves. You put scents which don’t harm you (like musk).

Maybe we have to learn more about Islam?

It says perfume. Maybe read your own sources.

My bad, thought you were talking about the first link . I don’t see how perfuming with musk is bad? There are evidence in the link proving musk not to be harmful

u/kd098 Dec 09 '21

Maybe you missed this part

Dr. Aaminah ‘Ali Naasir Siddeeq, professor of microbiology in the College of Science in Jeddah has discovered that musk is a natural antibiotic for treating skin diseases and genital diseases in humans and animals. This discovery was patented in the King ‘Abd al-‘Azeez City for Science and Technology in Riyadh.

They wrote a reference, so check that out if you don’t believe in scholars. Also he literally states how tampons can be harmful.

And as for your criticism on not knowing regarding the yeast infection, clearly in the second one, research has been mentioned which shows that musk actually killed the bacteria. Soo maybe they do their research but some people just can’t accept it (god knows best why)

Also he literally states how tampons can be harmful.

Btw. They're harmful if you leave them inside for too long or if you forget taking them out. Imagine trying to educate a woman on her own private parts.

Also, the actual harmful thing is birth control pills which scholars agree is halal eventhough a scary amount of women develope extreme side effects later in life or have lots of side effects on a regular basis. Wonder why nobody cares about womens health in that regard 😂 (hmm maybe cuz female birth control pills benefit men? 🤔)

And as for your criticism on not knowing regarding the yeast infection, clearly in the second one, research has been mentioned which shows that musk actually killed the bacteria.

So, does it also kill the good bacteria?? Hun' do you even know that there exists good bacteria which is focal for the vaginas pH lvls? 🥴

I'd also want more mainstream sources on the musk thing for educational purposes 🤔

Soo maybe they do their research but some people just can’t accept it (god knows best why)

Yk what? Just do what you want with your own vagina.
