25/18. Chapter:
The use of perfume while assuming Ihram
وَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا يَشَمُّ الْمُحْرِمُ الرَّيْحَانَ وَيَنْظُرُ فِي الْمِرْآةِ، وَيَتَدَاوَى بِمَا يَأْكُلُ الزَّيْتَ وَالسَّمْنَ. وَقَالَ عَطَاءٌ يَتَخَتَّمُ وَيَلْبَسُ الْهِمْيَانَ. وَطَافَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ، وَقَدْ حَزَمَ عَلَى بَطْنِهِ بِثَوْبٍ. وَلَمْ تَرَ عَائِشَةُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا بِالتُّبَّانِ بَأْسًا لِلَّذِينَ يَرْحَلُونَ هَوْدَجَهَا.And Ibn ‘Abbas رضي الله عنهما stated, “A Muhrim may smell sweet basil, and he may look at the mirror and can be treated with ordinary edible oil and butter.” And ‘Ata’ said, “A Muhrim may wear a ring and the Himyan (a belt with a purse to keep one’s money).” And Ibn ‘Umar رضي الله عنهما performed the Tawaf while he was Muhrim, with a piece of cloth tied round his belly. And ‘Aisha found no harm in wearing Tubban (short trousers) by those who fixed her Howdah.

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ كَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ يَدَّهِنُ بِالزَّيْتِ. فَذَكَرْتُهُ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ مَا تَصْنَعُ بِقَوْلِهِ حَدَّثَنِي الأَسْوَدُ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى وَبِيصِ الطِّيبِ فِي مَفَارِقِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ.
Narrated Sa`id bin Jubair: Ibn `Umar used to oil his hair. I told that to Ibrahim who said, "What do you think about this statement: Narrated Aswad from `Aisha: As if I were now observing the glitter of the scent in the parting of the hair of the Prophet (ﷺ) while he was Muhrim?"
