Explanation of the Book of Ablution, the Full Ritual Bath, Menstruation, and Dry Ablution-08a

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: Ahmad ibn Muhammad narrated to us, saying: Abdullah informed us, saying: Ma'mar informed us from Hammam ibn Munabbih from Abu Hurayrah from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said:
A wound which a Muslim receives in Allah's cause will appear on the Day of Resurrection as it was at the time of infliction; blood will be flowing from the wound and its color will be that of the blood but will smell like musk. كل كلم يكلمه المسلم في سبيل الله يكون يوم القيامة كهيئتها إذ طعنت تفجر دمًا اللون لون الدم والعرف عرف المسك
Sahih al-Bukhari 237
.

The Shaykh : Allah is the Greatest. The point of relevance here is that blood has a scent, and for this reason he said:
and the scent والعرف
meaning its scent is
the scent of musk عرف المسك
. Accordingly, if it falls into something and its scent changes due to the blood, it becomes ritually impure. This is what appears to me from al-Bukhari’s inclusion of this hadith.
Perhaps the Shaykh who explains it will clarify for us the reason for including it in this chapter.
