Safwan b. Ya'la b. Umayya reported that Ya'la used to say to 'Umar b. Khattab (Allaah be pleased with him): Would that I see revelation descending upon the Prophet of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam). (Once) when the Prophet of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) was in Ji'rana and there was a cloth which provided shade over him, and there were his Companions with him. 'Umar being one of them, there came a person with a cloak of wool on him daubed with perfume and he said: Messenger of Allaah, what about the person who, entered upon the state of Ihram with a cloak after daub- ing it with perfume? The Prophet of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) looked at him for a short while, and then became quiet, and revelation began descending upon him, and 'Umar gestured (with his hand) to Ya'la b Umayya to come. Ya'la came and he enter- ed his head (beneath the cloth and saw) the Prophet of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) with his face red, and breathing with a snore. Then he felt relieved (of that burden) and he said: Where is the man who was just asking me about Umra? The man was searched for and he was brought, and the Prophet of Allaah (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: So far as the perfume is concerned, wash it three times, and remove the cloak too (as it was sewn) and do in 'Umra as you do in Hajj. |
