4190. It was narrated that Wā'il bin Hujr said: “I came to the Prophet ﷺ and I had long hair. When the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ saw me he said: ‘This is bad, this is bad.’ So I went back and cut it off, and the next day I came to him, and he said: ‘I did not intend you, but this is better.’” (Saḥīh)

Arabic text

4190 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، وَسُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُقْبَةَ السُّوَائِيُّ - هُوَ أَخُو قَبِيصَةَ - وَحُمَيْدُ بْنُ خُوَارٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ وَائِلِ بْنِ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلِي شَعْرٌ طَوِيلٌ، فَلَمَّا رَآنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «ذُبَابٌ ذُبَابٌ» قَالَ: فَرَجَعْتُ فَجَزَزْتُهُ، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ، فَقَالَ: «إِنِّي لَمْ أَعْنِكَ، وَهَذَا أَحْسَنُ»
