[Machine] Abihi said: My father said, "If you had witnessed us while we were with our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and the sky rained on us, you would have thought that our scent was the scent of sheep. Indeed, our clothing was made of wool."
عَنْ أَبِيهِقَالَ قَالَ أَبِي لَوْ شَهِدْتَنَا وَنَحْنُ مَعَ نَبِيِّنَا ﷺ إِذَا أَصَابَتْنَا السَّمَاءُ حَسِبْتَ أَنَّ رِيحَنَا رِيحُ الضَّأْنِ إِنَّمَا لِبَاسُنَا الصُّوفُ

My father said to me: My son, if you had seen us while we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the rain had fallen on us, you would have thought that our smell was the smell of the sheep.
لِي أَبِي يَا بُنَىَّ لَوْ رَأَيْتَنَا وَنَحْنُ مَعَ نَبِيِّنَا ﷺ وَقَدْ أَصَابَتْنَا السَّمَاءُ حَسِبْتَ أَنَّ رِيحَنَا رِيحُ الضَّأْنِ
"O my son! If you saw us when we were with the Prophet ﷺ and the sky poured upon us, you would think that our smell was the smell of sheep." The meaning of this Hadith is that their garments were of wool, so when the rain fell upon them, the smell coming from their clothes was that of sheep.
يَا بُنَىَّ لَوْ رَأَيْتَنَا وَنَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَصَابَتْنَا السَّمَاءُ لَحَسِبْتَ أَنَّ رِيحَنَا رِيحُ الضَّأْنِ
“O my son, if only you could have seen us when we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, when rain fell on us; you would have thought that we smelled like sheep.”
لِي يَا بُنَىَّ لَوْ شَهِدْتَنَا وَنَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا أَصَابَتْنَا السَّمَاءُ لَحَسِبْتَ أَنَّ رِيحَنَا رِيحُ الضَّأْنِ
“O my son, if only you could have seen us when we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, when rain fell on us; you would have thought that we smelled like sheep.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3562)
أَنَّهُ قَالَ يَا بُنِيَّ لَوْ شَهِدْتَنَا وَنَحْنُ مَعَ نَبِيِّنَا ﷺ إِذَا أَصَابَتْنَا السَّمَاءُ لَحَسِبْتَ رِيحَنَا رِيحَ الضَّأْنِ مِنْ لِبَاسِنَا الصُّوفَ
