Anas bin Malik (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Prophet (PBUH) never refused a gift of
perfume
.
[Al-Bukhari].
Commentary:
We learn the following points from this Hadith:
1. A gift of perfume or something similar to it should be accepted.
2. The fondness of the Prophet (PBUH) for perfume. The fact that he never refused this gift is enough to illustrate
his penchant for it.
3. The desirability of the use of perfume.
