Arabic text

٢٦٦٦ - أَخْبَرَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، ‌وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي ‌مَالِكٌ ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: «نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَلْبَسَ الْمُحْرِمُ ثَوْبًا مَصْبُوغًا بِزَعْفَرَانٍ أَوْ بِوَرْسٍ».

Commentary

The use of fragrance or perfume is forbidden for the Muhrim or the one who has already entered the state of sanctity. Saffron is also a kind of perfume; hence, the use of saffron-dyed clothes is also forbidden. Wars is a dye-yielding fragrant plant.
