Arabic hadith text
وَعَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا أَرْكَبُ الْأُرْجُوَانَ وَلَا أَلْبَسُ الْمُعَصْفَرَ وَلَا أَلْبَسُ الْقَمِيصَ الْمُكَفَّفَ بِالْحَرِيرِ» وَقَالَ: «أَلَا وَطِيبُ الرِّجَالِ رِيحٌ لَا لَوْنَ لَهُ وَطِيبُ النِّسَاءِ لَوْنٌ لَا ريح لَهُ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
Translation
Imran ibn Husayn reported that the Prophet of Allah ﷺ said, “I do not ride on purple furnishings, wear safflower-dyed clothing, or wear a shirt trimmed with silk.” He also said, “The perfume of men should have a scent but no color, and the perfume of women should have color but no scent.” Abu Dawud transmitted it.
