Incense...is the scent of gathering

People from the Gulf countries and the Arab world are keen to constantly perfume their living rooms and homes, especially on holidays and important occasions, based on their keenness to implement the Sunnah of the Prophet by perfuming not only the clothing or the body, but also the place. Therefore, there is a special interest in perfuming living rooms and homes in the Middle East at all times, but during the holidays the people are more careful in these special times, as it is one of the good and authentic traditions and customs in society.

A historical perspective

With a historical look at the history of incense, we find that it goes back to ancient times, as it was known in ancient civilizations such as the Chinese, Assyrian, and Pharaohs before arriving to Arab civilization through the incense trail as a result of freedom of trade between other countries and the lands of the Arabian Peninsula, where products were exchanged, and it was among them are oud and incense, which have gained a special status among the Arabs, due to their quality and distinctive scent. There is even a project currently being worked on to open a special incense museum in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, as the first museum dedicated to the incense route on the land through which this ancient road passed, as this road was a witness to cultural exchange. So, from ancient times until the present time, it can be said that burning the oud was actually one of the most important customs followed when receiving guests, and it indicates the generosity of Arab hospitality.

Luxurious Types

Agarwood has a special history with the Gulf, and its presence is essential for perfuming guests. It is something that is passed down through the generations despite its high price, as there are very luxurious types of it.

The history of the incense and oud trade is ancient in the Arab region, where its trade was popular in the past and contributed to enhancing cultural exchange, noting that there are many types of oud such as Cambodian, Indian, Vietnamese, and others, and that the host offers the oud from the smoker and it goes around to the guests. Two or three times, and thus the smell of oud remains on clothes.

Wedding celebrations

Al-Nama pointed out that men may use oud on official occasions, such as holidays and wedding celebrations, and during various visits and on Fridays before prayer, etc. No place is devoid of oud and its fragrant scent in the place, noting that oud is used on an almost daily basis by most Muslims. It is an indispensable daily habit, especially for women, in addition to various occasions such as weddings and holidays, and when guests are present, and it may even be to perfume the house to make it smell beautifully fragrant.

In ramadan

Incense in Ramadan is an adornment of gatherings and a joy to the atmosphere. There are many cultural, historical and spiritual reasons, in addition to customs and traditions, behind the demand for buying incense and Arabic perfumes on occasions and holidays, especially in the month of Ramadan, because of their spiritual connotations that characterize the holy month.

The demand for incense increases significantly during Ramadan, as well as for oud and Arabic perfumes, as citizens are keen to perfume and perfume themselves after breaking the fast and before going to Taraweeh prayers, as is desirable according to the teachings of the true Islamic religion. The keenness of most Arab families, especially Gulf ones, to buy incense in Ramadan is due to the large number of family visits. And during Ramadan gatherings, they cover their homes and clothes before entering the gathering, after leaving, and when going to prayer. This is one of the ancient customs that characterize Gulf societies in particular and Arab and Islamic societies in general. They choose appropriate types of incense during Ramadan, and a large number of them are keen to buy good, manufactured incense and perfumes. Locally, in this holy month, incense in Gulf culture has a strong relationship with the spiritual atmosphere that is evident during the holy month of Ramadan. Hardly any Gulf family's home is without an incense burner, which is one of the necessities that is used on a daily basis during Ramadan to give the place a spiritual character.
