The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
مرّة أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَأَى عَلَيْهِ خَلُوقًا فَقَالَ: «أَلَكَ امْرَأَةٌ؟» قَالَ: لَا قَالَ: «فَاغْسِلْهُ ثُمَّ اغْسِلْهُ ثُمَّ اغْسِلْهُ ثُمَّ لَا تعد» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ وَالنَّسَائِيّ
Ya‘la b. Murra told that when the Prophet saw some khaluq (A liquid, yellow perfume mainly composed of saffron) on him he asked whether he had a wife, and when he replied that he had not he said, “Wash it, then wash it, then wash it, and do not use it again.”
Tirmidhi and Nasa'i transmitted it.
