Hadith record

5. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah, from his father from Khalaf from Hammad from Al-Husayn ibn Zayd al-Hashimiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Once Zaynab al-‘Attarah al-Hawla’ visited the wives of the Holy Prophet, and the Holy Prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, also came home when she was with his wives. The Holy Prophet said, ‘When you visit our houses they become full of sweet smelling fragrance.’ She then responded saying, ‘Your houses with your own fragrance are the best, O the Messenger of Allah.’ The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, then said, ‘When you sell perfumes, you must make certain it is not adulterated; maintaining a greater degree of piety before Allah is more protection for wealth.’”
