Arabic text

5236 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا عِيسَى، عَنْ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ، عَنْ حَسَّانَ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: أَتَانَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرَأَى رَجُلًا ثَائِرَ الرَّأْسِ فَقَالَ: «أَمَا يَجِدُ هَذَا مَا يُسَكِّنُ بِهِ شَعْرَهُ»

Commentary

Disheveled hair of the beard or the head presents an untidy look. Hence, it is essential for a Muslim that he keeps his hair in order, takes good care of it and combing it periodically.
