Question:
The questioner asks: In the saying of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)Sahih al-Bukhari 7538, can it be inferred that Allah has the attribute of smelling?
Answer:
This is a forced interpretation by the questioner. The hadith does not mention smelling, so we cannot establish smelling for Allah (Mighty and Majestic).

and the smell which comes out of the mouth of a fasting person, is better in Allah's Sight than the smell of musk.
