Jami` at-Tirmidhi 917

Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

Ahmad ibn Mani' narrated to us: Hushaym narrated to us: Mansur—meaning Ibn Zadhan—informed us, from Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Qasim, from his father, from A'ishah, who said: I applied perfume containing musk to the Messenger of Allah before he entered ihram and on the Day of Sacrifice before he circumambulated the House.

There is also a report on this topic from Ibn Abbas. Abu Isa said: The hadith of A'ishah is hasan sahih. Most scholars among the Prophet's Companions and others act on this: when a pilgrim has stoned the Jamrah of Aqabah on the Day of Sacrifice, sacrificed, and shaved or shortened his hair, everything previously forbidden to him becomes lawful except relations with women. This is the view of al-Shafi'i, Ahmad, and Ishaq. It is also reported that Umar ibn al-Khattab said, ‘Everything is lawful for him except women and perfume.’ Some scholars among the Prophet's Companions and others held this view; it is the view of the people of Kufa.
