Perfume and Angelic Realm

Question: The fragrance of perfume represents the angelic realm

Shaykh AI:

B’ism Allah… Alhamdulillah, from the teachings of Mawlana Shaykh Nurjan Shaykh Nojan Mirahmadi Shaykh Nurjan Mirahmadi (QS), the fragrance of perfume indeed represents the angelic realm in Sufi teachings. The hadith of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ mentions, “Allah has made three things dear for me: perfume/purity, women, and the coolness of my eyes is in prayer.” This signifies the significance of perfume and purity in the spiritual realm.

The fragrance of perfume is associated with the angelic realm as it is a reflection of purity and cleanliness. It is a means to elevate one’s state of being and connect with the angelic world. The use of fragrance and perfume is a way to purify and cleanse oneself, both physically and spiritually. It reflects the inner purity and cleanliness of the soul, which is dear to the heart of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

In Sufi teachings, the fragrance of perfume is considered a reflection of the inner state of the heart. Just as the angels are attracted to goodness and purity, the fragrance of perfume symbolizes the attraction of the angelic realm to purity and goodness. It represents the spiritual refinement and elevation of the soul, drawing it closer to the angelic presence.

Therefore, the fragrance of perfume holds a deep spiritual significance in Sufi teachings, symbolizing purity, cleanliness, and the connection to the angelic realm. It serves as a reminder to maintain inner purity and to attract the blessings of the angelic beings through spiritual refinement.

May you be blessed with the fragrance of purity and spiritual elevation in your journey. May your heart be adorned with the beautiful fragrance of goodness and purity, attracting the blessings of the angelic realm. Ameen.
