Using carbon charcoal
Question
I would like to know if there is any ruling on using carbon (charcoal) to clean out the body, like our teeth or facial products with carbon charcoal in it?
Answer
Carbon charcoal is produced by heating charcoal to an extremely high temperature in an environment without oxygen, such as a tank. There is no prohibition in Shariah that prevents us from using it for facials and cleaning one’s teeth.
