It is narrated from Habib bin Khudrah that a man from Banu Harish told me that when the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) stoned Ma'iz bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), I was with my father. When the stones struck Ma'iz (may Allah be pleased with him), I was overcome with fear, so the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) embraced me. The sweat from his armpit came upon me, and its fragrance was like the fragrance of musk.
