حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ قَالَ: نَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ الرَّمَادِيُّ قَالَ: نَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْأَحْوَلِ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ. عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا، أَرَادَ أَنْ يُبَايِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، فَأَبْصَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَعَلَيْهِ أَثَرُ صُفْرَةٍ، فَأَبَى أَنْ يُبَايِعَهُ، وَقَالَ: طِيبُ الرِّجَالِ مَا ظَهَرَ رِيحُهُ وَخَفِيَ لَوْنُهُ، وَطِيبُ النِّسَاءِ مَا ظَهَرَ لَوْنُهُ وَخَفِيَ رِيحُهُ

✧ A man wanted to pledge allegiance to the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ saw him and noticed traces of yellow perfume on him, so he refused to accept his pledge and said: The perfume of men is that whose scent is apparent while its color is hidden, and the perfume of women is that whose color is apparent while its scent is hidden.
