حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا حَفْصِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ مُرَّةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَبْصَرَ رَجُلاً مُتَخَلِّقًا قَالَ " اذْهَبْ فَاغْسِلْهُ ثُمَّ اغْسِلْهُ ثُمَّ لاَ تَعُدْ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ . وَقَدِ اخْتَلَفَ بَعْضُهُمْ فِي هَذَا الإِسْنَادِ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ . قَالَ عَلِيٌّ قَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ مَنْ سَمِعَ مِنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ قَدِيمًا فَسَمَاعُهُ صَحِيحٌ وَسَمَاعُ شُعْبَةَ وَسُفْيَانَ مِنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ صَحِيحٌ إِلاَّ حَدِيثَيْنِ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ زَاذَانَ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ سَمِعْتُهُمَا مِنْهُ بِأَخَرَةٍ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى يُقَالُ إِنَّ عَطَاءَ بْنَ السَّائِبِ كَانَ فِي آخِرِ أَمْرِهِ قَدْ سَاءَ حِفْظُهُ . وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَمَّارٍ وَأَبِي مُوسَى وَأَنَسٍ وَأَبُو حَفْصٍ هُوَ أَبُو حَفْصِ بْنُ عُمَرَ .

Ya‘la ibn Murrah reported: The Prophet saw a man wearing khuluq perfume and said, ‘Go and wash it—wash it again—and do not use it again.’
Abu ‘Isa said: This is a hasan hadith. Transmitters differed in this chain from ‘Ata’ ibn al-Sa’ib. ‘Ali reported that Yahya ibn Sa‘id said: ‘Those who heard from ‘Ata’ early have accurate transmissions. Shu‘bah’s and Sufyan’s transmissions from ‘Ata’ are sound, except for two reports from ‘Ata’, from Zadhan.’ Shu‘bah said, ‘I heard those two from him late.’ Abu ‘Isa said: It is said that ‘Ata’ ibn al-Sa’ib’s memory deteriorated toward the end of his life. There are reports on this topic from ‘Ammar, Abu Musa, and Anas. Abu Hafs is Abu Hafs ibn ‘Umar.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
Khuluq is a scented perfume, often saffron-based. The report instructs the man to wash it off and not use it again. The source also explains transmission differences related to ‘Ata’ ibn al-Sa’ib’s later memory decline.
