Question

I apply a drug for hair loss, this drug is in the form of a foam which contains a percentage of alcohol, I apply this drug to the empty parts of my head twice a day.

Is it my fasting acceptable?

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salฤmu สฟalaykum wa-rahmatullฤhi wa-barakฤtuh.

Application of hair-loss medication on the scalp does not invalidate the fast. Your fast is intact.[1]

However, have a thorough review of the medication to see if it is sharสฟan pure so that its application does not affect your Salah and สฟibadฤt.

And Allah Taโ€™ฤla Knows Best
