| 2 Bukhari hadiths


2582 - ‘Azrah ibn Thaabit Al-Ansaaree narrated:When I went to Thumaamah ibn ‘Abdullah, he gave me some perfume and said that Anas (may Allah be pleased with him)would not reject the gifts of perfume and said that the Prophet ﷺwould not reject any perfume gifted to him.

Commentary :
Perfume was one of the most beloved things to the Prophet ﷺ, as he used to love (cleanliness and) good scent and disliked that his body odor should not be pleasant, which was not possible, because he ﷺ always had a good smell, and wore the best perfume, so much that people used to use his sweat as perfume.
In this hadeeth, the Taabi‘ee ‘Azrah ibn Thaabit Al-Ansaaree narrated that he visited Thumaamah ibn ‘Abdullah ibn Anas ibn Maalik, who gave him some perfume and told him that his grandfather Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him) never turned down perfume gifted to him, following the example of the Prophet ﷺ who did not turn down perfume that was gifted to him.
The prohibition of turning down gifts of perfume was reported along with the wisdom behind it in the hadeeth narrated on the authority of Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), and recorded by Aboo Daawood, reading: “Whoever is offered perfume (as a gift), let him not refuse it, for it is easy to carry, and smells good.” 
The hadeeth urges Muslims to considerately accept people’s gifts.
It is also inferred therefrom that Muslims are urged to wear fragrance and use aromatic perfumes..
