249. 'Alī said: "Indeed the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Whoever leaves the space of one hair unwashed after (performing Ghusl for) Janābah, then he will be (punished) with the Fire in such and such a manner." (Hasan) 'Alī said: "So due to this I considered my hair an enemy, so due to this I considered my hair an enemy, so due to this I considered my hair an enemy". And he would cut his hair, may Allāh be pleased with him.

249 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ، عَنْ زَاذَانَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ تَرَكَ مَوْضِعَ شَعْرَةٍ مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ لَمْ يَغْسِلْهَا فُعِلَ بِهَا كَذَا وَكَذَا مِنَ النَّارِ» قَال عَلِيٌّ: فَمِنْ ثَمَّ عَادَيْتُ رَأْسِي ثَلَاثًا، وَكَانَ يَجُزُّ شَعْرَهُ

Commentary

It is clear from all the foregoing Aḥādīth that one shall wash one's body thoroughly, leaving not a single spot unwashed. Women may also keep their hair plaited or braided.
