Sunan Abi Dawud Book 35, Hadith 21
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) forbade men to use saffron. Isma'il version has: "(forbade) man to use saffron."
We heard Abu Musa say: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Allah does not accept the prayer of a man who has any khaluq (perfume composed of saffron) on his body.
Abu Dawud said: His grandfathers were Zaid and Ziyad.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: The angels do not come near three: the dead body of the unbeliever, one who smears himself with khaluq, and the one who is sexually defiled except that he performs ablution.
