English translation

[6062] 90 - (2336) It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbâs said: "The People of the Book used to let their hair fall over their foreheads and the idolaters used to part their hair. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ liked to do the same as the People of the Book in matters concerning which he had received no command. So the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ let his hair fall over his forehead, then later on he parted it."

Arabic text

90 - (2336) حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ أَبِي مُزَاحِمٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ - قَالَ مَنْصُورٌ: حَدَّثَنَا، وقَالَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ - أَخْبَرَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ يَعْنِيَانِ ابْنَ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ يَسْدِلُونَ أَشْعَارَهُمْ، وَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَفْرُقُونَ رُءُوسَهُمْ، «وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُحِبُّ مُوَافَقَةَ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ فِيمَا لَمْ يُؤْمَرْ بِهِ، فَسَدَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَاصِيَتَهُ، ثُمَّ فَرَقَ بَعْدُ»
