Muwatta Malik #755
Hajj
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi from Aslam, the mawla of
Umar ibn al Khattab, that Umar ibn al-Khattab discovered the smell of
perfume while he was at ash-Shajara, and he asked, "Who is this smell
of perfume coming from?" Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan answered, "From me,
amir al-muminin." Umar said, "From you? By the life of Allah!" Muawiya
explained, "Umm Habiba perfumed me, amir al-muminin. "'Umar then said,
"You must go back and wash it off."
