4190. Narrated Ka'b bin 'Ujra رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ came to me at the time of Al-Hudaibīya Pledge while lice were falling on my face. He said, "Are the lice of your head troubling you?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Shave your head and observe Ṣaum (fast) for three days, or feed six poor persons, or slaughter a sheep as sacrifice." (The subnarrator, Ayyūb said, "I do not know with which of these three options he started.")

Arabic text

4190 - حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: أَتَى عَلَيَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ زَمَنَ الحُدَيْبِيَةِ، وَالقَمْلُ يَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَى وَجْهِي، فَقَالَ: «أَيُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ؟» قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَاحْلِقْ، وَصُمْ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، أَوْ أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ، أَوْ انْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً» قَالَ أَيُّوبُ: «لاَ أَدْرِي بِأَيِّ هَذَا بَدَأَ»
