Q: I wanted to purchase some oud. The person selling it had informed me that to speed up the process of making this oud they use a very little brandy (type of alcohol) in the oud. He also mentioned that the Ulama said it is permissble to use such oud.

Will it be permissble to use this oud? Will there be a difference in the maslah if the brandy is made from grapes or if the brandy is made from something besides grapes, for example it is made from wheat?
