How to Use Bakhoor Mukahlat al Fatima with Your Burner

Quick answer

Light the tip of a Bakhoor Mukahlat al Fatima stick, let it burn briefly, then blow out the flame and place it in your burner to let the scented smoke fill the room.

How to burn Bakhoor Mukahlat al Fatima: Step by step

1. Prepare your burner: Place the burner on a heat-safe surface away from drafts, curtains, or flammable items. If your burner has a charcoal disc, light it until it glows red and place it inside. For the included burner, simply set it on a stable table. Never leave the burner unattended near children or pets.
2. Light the stick: Hold one Bakhoor Mukahlat al Fatima stick at a 45-degree angle. Light the tip with a lighter or match. Let it burn for about 5–10 seconds until you see a steady flame, then gently blow it out. If the stick goes out immediately, the tip may not be fully lit. Re-light and let it burn a few seconds longer.
3. Smolder in the burner: Place the glowing tip of the stick into the burner's holder or directly onto the charcoal (if using a separate burner). The stick will continue to smolder, releasing the fragrance. The smoke should be thin and aromatic, not thick or acrid. If the smoke is too thick, the stick is burning too fast—move it to a cooler part of the burner or use less charcoal.
4. Enjoy and extinguish safely: Let the stick smolder for 15–30 minutes, or until it burns out naturally. To stop the scent early, press the glowing tip into a small dish of sand or salt. Never use water, as it can crack the burner. Store unused sticks in a dry, airtight container to preserve their fragrance.
