English translation

1884. It was narrated from Ayyūb: "I heard Ḥafṣah saying: 'Umm 'Aṭīyyah said: They tied the hair of the daughter of the Prophet ﷺ in three braids.'" I said: Did they undo it, then make three braids? She[1] said: 'Yes.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

1883 - أَخْبَرَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ أَيُّوبُ، سَمِعْتُ حَفْصَةَ، تَقُولُ: حَدَّثَتْنَا أُمُّ عَطِيَّةَ، أَنَّهُنَّ «جَعَلْنَ رَأْسَ ابْنَةَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثَةَ قُرُونٍ»، قُلْتُ: نَقَضْنَهُ وَجَعَلْنَهُ ثَلَاثَةَ قُرُونٍ؟ قَالَتْ: «نَعَمْ»

    [1] That is Umm 'Aṭīyyah according to Ibn Ḥajar in Fath Al-Bārī No. 1260.

Commentary

The Hanafites are of the view of parting the hair into two parts, instead of plaiting the hair. Thereupon, both the parts should be placed on the breast. But there is mention of three plaits in Aḥādīth.
