حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، وَأَحَمْدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ هُوَ الضَّبِّيُّ، وَالْمَعْنَى وَاحِدٌ، قَالا‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ سَلْمٍ الْعَلَوِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، أَنَّهُ كَانَ عِنْدَهُ رَجُلٌ بِهِ أَثَرُ صُفْرَةٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، لا يكَادُ يُواجِهُ أَحَدًا بِشَيْءٍ يَكْرَهُهُ، فَلَمَّا قَامَ، قَالَ لِلْقَوْمِ‏:‏ لَوْ قُلْتُمْ لَهُ يَدَعُ هَذِهِ الصُّفْرَةَ‏.‏
Anas ibn Malik said (may Allah be well pleased with him):

According to Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace), there was a man in his presence with a trace of saffron upon him. Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) could hardly face someone with something on him that he found disgusting, so when he left, he said to the people: 'If only you would tell him to get rid of this saffron!'"
