In pharmacies, there are mouth fresheners in small atomizers. Is it permissible to use them during the day in Ramadan to remove the smell from the mouth? A – It is enough to use the Miswak which the Prophet (peace be upon him) has recommended while fasting rather than the atomizers. There is no problem in using the atomizer as long as nothing reaches the throat. However, it is befitting not to dislike the odor (of the mouth) resulting from fasting, since it is indicative of obedience to Allah and it is beloved to Allah. It is mentioned in a Hadith: “The odor emanating from the mouth of one who is fasting is more pleasant to Allah than the smell of musk.” – Sheikh Saleh Bin Fowzan; Fatawa Ramadan, vol. 2, p. 501, no. 457 __
