Abu Huraira reported God’s Messenger as saying, "If anyone is offered basil he must not reject it, for it is light to carry and has a sweet scent.” Muslim transmitted it.
Reported by Muslim (No. 2253). Cited in Mishkat al-Masabih (No. 3016).
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Whoever is presented with basil should not decline it. Indeed, it is light to carry and pleasant to smell.”
عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه، قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : “من عرض عليه ريحان، فلا يرده، فإنه خفيف المحمل طيب الريح" ((رواه مسلم)).
