Ibn ‘Abbas said the Prophet used to clip or take something off his moustache, and Abraham the friend of the Compassionate One used to do it.
Tirmidhi transmitted it.
Nafi' said that when Ibn ‘Umar perfumed himself he used aloes-wood mixed with no other perfume, and also used camphor which he mixed in with the aloes-wood. Then he said that God’s messenger had perfumed himself thus.
Muslim transmitted it.
Zaid b. Arqam reported God’s messenger as saying, “He who does not take something off his moustache is not one of us.”
Ahmad, Tirmidhi and Nasa'i transmitted it.
‘A’isha said she used to perfume the Prophet with the sweetest perfume she could find till she saw the perfume shining on his head and beard.
(Bukhari and Muslim.)
