1115. It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin 'Abbâs that he saw ‘Abdullāh bin Al-Ĥārīth praying with his hair bound behind him. He stopped and started to undo it. When he finished he turned to Ibn ‘Abbās and said: “What were you doing to my head?” He said: “I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: “The likeness of this is that of one who prays with his hands tied behind his neck.”’ (Saḥīḥ)
1114 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ سَوَّادِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو السَّرْحِيُّ، مِنْ وَلَدِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَرْحٍ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، أَنَّ بُكَيْرًا حَدَّثَهُ، أَنَّ كُرَيْبًا مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حَدَّثَهُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّهُ رَأَى عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ الْحَارِثِ يُصَلِّي وَرَأْسُهُ مَعْقُوصٌ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ، فَقَامَ فَجَعَلَ يَحُلُّهُ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ أَقْبَلَ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ: مَا لَكَ وَرَأْسِي؟ قَالَ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّمَا مَثَلُ هَذَا مَثَلُ الَّذِي يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ مَكْتُوفٌ»

As a person whose hands are tied behind himself would perform the prayer deficiently, likewise a person with his hair tied at the rear deprives his hair from reward; instead, had his hair touched the ground, the prostration of his hair also might have been considered, and he would have been recompensed.
