حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَوْنٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ لِي أَبِي : " يَا بُنَيَّ لَوْ رَأَيْتَنَا وَنَحْنُ مَعَ نَبِيِّنَا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ أَصَابَتْنَا السَّمَاءُ حَسِبْتَ أَنَّ رِيحَنَا رِيحُ الضَّأْنِ " .
Narrated Abu Burdah: My father said to me: My son, if you had seen us while we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the rain had fallen on us, you would have thought that our smell was the smell of the sheep.
Brief Explanation
1؎: Because our clothes were made of skins and hair, and due to getting wet, they would emit the smell of sheep and goats.
