QUICK LESSONS:
Be mindful of your actions and how they may affect others around you; Present yourself in an appropriate manner; Strive for modesty and humility in your behavior and appearance.

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Anas ibn Malik states that the Prophet Muhammad prohibited men from using saffron, also known as zafran in Arabic, as a perfume. This is because it was seen to be too strong of a scent for men to wear and was more suitable for women. In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad is teaching us that we should be mindful of our actions and how they may affect others around us. He is also teaching us about modesty and humility in our behavior and appearance. We should strive to present ourselves in an appropriate manner that does not draw attention or cause discomfort to those around us.
