Several members of his household reported that Umar bin Khattab caught the scent of perfume while he was at Shajarah, with Kathir bin Salt beside him.Umar asked, "Where is this scent of perfume coming from?"Kathir replied, "From me, Commander of the Faithful. I matted my hair with it and intended not to shave."Umar said, "Then go to a water basin and scrub your head until you have cleaned it out."So Kathir bin Salt did.
و حدثني عن مالك
عن غير واحد من أهله أن عمر بن الخطاب وجد ريح طيب وهو بالشجرة وإلى جنبه كثير بن الصلت فقال عمر ممن ريح هذا الطيب فقال كثير مني يا أمير المؤمنين لبدت رأسي وأردت أن لا أحلق فقال عمر فاذهب إلى شربة فادلك رأسك حتى تنقيه ففعل كثير بن الصلت
