Hadith 19759

حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ ، قال : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَن قَتَادَةَ ، عَن أَبِي بُرْدَةَ ، قال : قال لِي أَبُو مُوسَى : يَا بُنَيَّ ، لَوْ رَأَيْتَنَا وَنَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَأَصَابَنَا الْمَطَرُ ، وَجَدْتَ مِنَّا رِيحَ الضَّأْنِ .
Hazrat Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) once said to his son Abu Burdah, "Son! If you had seen that time, how would you have felt that we used to be with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and a smell like that of sheep and goats would come from us (because of rainwater falling on our coarse clothes)."
