Salim bin Abdullah narrated that Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "I myself applied perfume to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)." She said that it is in the Book of Al-Imla that (I applied perfume) for his being lawful and for Ihram. Salim said: "And the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) is more deserving to be followed."
