Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 769/588=L/1430)

I could not find anywhere on which parts the Prophet (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) used to apply attars. However, it is mentioned that he used to apply it on head and beard. Hadhrat Salmah bin Akwa? (رضی اللہ عنہ) says that the Prophet would take musk in hand and apply it on head and beard. (Kanzul Ummal)
