1040 - حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الضَّرِيرُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، وَأَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أُمِرْتُ أَنْ لَا أَكُفَّ شَعَرًا وَلَا ثَوْبًا»

Commentary
'Tucking up the hair' means, not collecting them into a topknot like the women. We must avoid this sort of thing. If it is already done like this, we must undo it before starting the prayer. This also applies to rolling up the pants or sleeves during prayer. See Nawawi's Sharh, Sahih Muslim.
