Use of Perfumes in the State of al-’Ihram

16ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مَعْرُوفٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنِ التُّفَّاحِ وَالأُتْرُجِّ وَالنَّبِقِ وَمَا طَابَ رِيحُهُ قَالَ تُمْسِكُ عَنْ شَمِّهِ وَتَأْكُلُهُ.
16. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ahmad ibn al-Hassan from ‘Amr ibn Sa‘id from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqah from ‘Ammar ibn Musa who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about a man who is in the state of Ihram and eats citron. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, he can eat.’ I then said, ‘It has nice fragrance.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Citron is food and it is not a fragrance.’”
