English translation

915. (Another chain) with similar (as no. 914) from Khilās, but he did not mention “from ‘Ali.” (Hasan) Abū ‘Eisā said: There is confusion (Idtirāb) in the Hadīth of 'Ali. This Hadīth was reported from Hammād bin Salamah, from Qatādah, from 'Aishah: "The Prophet ﷺ prohibited that a woman should shave her head." This is acted upon according to the people of knowledge; they do not think that a woman is to shave, and they hold the view that she is to shorten.

Arabic text

٩١٥ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو دَاوُدَ ، عَنْ ‌هَمَّامٍ ، عَنْ ‌خِلَاسٍ ، نَحْوَهُ، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ: عَنْ عَلِيٍّ. حَدِيثُ عَلِيٍّ فِيهِ اضْطِرَابٌ. وَرُوِيَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ؛ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى أَنْ تَحْلِقَ الْمَرْأَةُ رَأْسَهَا. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ لَا يَرَوْنَ عَلَى الْمَرْأَةِ حَلْقًا، وَيَرَوْنَ أَنَّ عَلَيْهَا التَّقْصِيرَ.

Commentary

All scholars agree that a woman is not allowed to shave her head, she is allowed to shorten her hair only.
