14ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ لا بَأْسَ بِأَنْ تَشَمَّ الإِذْخِرَ وَالْقَيْصُومَ وَالْخُزَامَى وَالشِّيحَ وَأَشْبَاهَهُ وَأَنْتَ مُحْرِمٌ.
14. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “It is not harmful to smell ‘Idhkhir (a green plant with a certain fragrance), lavender cotton, tulip, wormwood and similar things, while you are in the state of Ihram.”
