abudawud:4159Musaddad > Yaḥyá > Hishām b. Ḥassān > al-Ḥasan > ʿAbdullāh b. Mughaffal

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade combing the hair except every second day.  

أبو داود:٤١٥٩حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُغَفَّلٍ قَالَ

نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ التَّرَجُّلِ إِلاَّ غِبًّا  

abudawud:4160al-Ḥasan b. ʿAlī > Yazīd al-Māzinī > al-Jurayrī > ʿAbdullāh b. Buraydah

A man from the companions of the Prophet ﷺ travelled to Fudalah ibn Ubayd when he was in Egypt. He came to him and said: I have not come to you to visit you. But you and I heard a tradition from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I hope you may have some knowledge of it. He asked: What is it? He replied: So and so. He said: Why do I see you dishevelled when you are the ruler of this land? He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has forbidden us to indulge much in luxury. He said: Why do I see you unshod? He replied: The Prophet ﷺ used to command us to go barefoot at times.  

أبو داود:٤١٦٠حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ الْمَازِنِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ

أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ رَحَلَ إِلَى فَضَالَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ وَهُوَ بِمِصْرَ فَقَدِمَ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ أَمَا إِنِّي لَمْ آتِكَ زَائِرًا وَلَكِنِّي سَمِعْتُ أَنَا وَأَنْتَ حَدِيثًا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَجَوْتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ عِنْدَكَ مِنْهُ عِلْمٌ قَالَ وَمَا هُوَ قَالَ كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ فَمَا لِي أَرَاكَ شَعِثًا وَأَنْتَ أَمِيرُ الأَرْضِ قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَنْهَانَا عَنْ كَثِيرٍ مِنَ الإِرْفَاهِ قَالَ فَمَا لِي لاَ أَرَى عَلَيْكَ حِذَاءً قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَأْمُرُنَا أَنْ نَحْتَفِيَ أَحْيَانًا

The Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ mentioned this word before him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Listen, listen! Wearing old clothes is a part of faith, wearing old clothes is a part of faith. Abu Dawud said: He is Abu Umamah b. Tha'labat al-Ansari  

أبو داود:٤١٦١حَدَّثَنَا النُّفَيْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ

ذَكَرَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمًا عِنْدَهُ الدُّنْيَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَلاَ تَسْمَعُونَ أَلاَ تَسْمَعُونَ إِنَّ الْبَذَاذَةَ مِنَ الإِيمَانِ إِنَّ الْبَذَاذَةَ مِنَ الإِيمَانِ يَعْنِي التَّقَحُّلَ

The Prophet ﷺ had sikkah with which he perfumed himself.  

أبو داود:٤١٦٢حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ عَنْ شَيْبَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُخْتَارِ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ أَنَسٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

كَانَتْ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ سُكَّةٌ يَتَطَيَّبُ مِنْهَا  

abudawud:4163Sulaymān b. Dāwud al-Mahrī > Ibn Wahb > Ibn Abū al-Zinād > Suhayl b. Abū Ṣāliḥ from his father > Abū Hurayrah

The Prophet ﷺ said: He who has hair should honour it.  

أبو داود:٤١٦٣حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ الْمَهْرِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ شَعْرٌ فَلْيُكْرِمْهُ

Karimah, daughter of Hammam, told that a woman came to Aisha (Allah be pleased with her) and asked her about dyeing with henna. She replied: There is no harm, but I do not like it. My beloved, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, disliked its odour. Abu Dawud said: She meant the colour of hair of the head.  

أبو داود:٤١٦٤حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَتْنِي كَرِيمَةُ بِنْتُ هَمَّامٍ

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ فَسَأَلَتْهَا عَنْ خِضَابِ الْحِنَّاءِ فَقَالَتْ لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ وَلَكِنِّي أَكْرَهُهُ كَانَ حَبِيبِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَكْرَهُ رِيحَهُ  

قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ تَعْنِي خِضَابَ شَعْرِ الرَّأْسِ

When Hind, daughter of Utbah, said: Prophet of Allah, accept my allegiance, he replied; I shall not accept your allegiance till you make a difference to the palms of your hands; for they look like the paws of a beast of prey.  

أبو داود:٤١٦٥حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَتْنِي غِبْطَةُ بِنْتُ عَمْرٍو الْمُجَاشِعِيَّةُ قَالَتْ حَدَّثَتْنِي عَمَّتِي أُمُّ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ جَدَّتِهَا عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ أَنَّ هِنْدًا بِنْتَ عُتْبَةَ قَالَتْ

يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ بَايِعْنِي قَالَ لاَ أُبَايِعُكِ حَتَّى تُغَيِّرِي كَفَّيْكِ كَأَنَّهُمَا كَفَّا سَبُعٍ

A woman made a sign from behind a curtain to indicate that she had a letter for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ closed his hand, saying: I do not know this is a man's or a woman's hand. She said: No, a woman. He said: If you were a woman, you would make a difference to your nails, meaning with henna.

أَوْمَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ وَرَاءِ سِتْرٍ بِيَدِهَا كِتَابٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَبَضَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَدَهُ فَقَالَ مَا أَدْرِي أَيَدُ رَجُلٍ أَمْ يَدُ امْرَأَةٍ قَالَتْ بَلِ امْرَأَةٌ قَالَ لَوْ كُنْتِ امْرَأَةً لَغَيَّرْتِ أَظْفَارَكِ يَعْنِي بِالْحِنَّاءِ  

abudawud:4167ʿAbdullāh b. Maslamah > Mālik > Ibn Shihāb > Ḥumayd b. ʿAbd al-Raḥman

That he heard Mu'awiyah b. Abi Sufyan say during the Hajj when he was on the pulpit and took a lock of hair which was in the hand of the guard, saying: O people of Medina, where are your scholars ? I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbidding such a think as this and said: The children of Isra'il perished when their women practised it.  

أبو داود:٤١٦٧حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنَ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَامَ حَجَّ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ وَتَنَاوَلَ قُصَّةً مِنْ شَعْرٍ كَانَتْ فِي يَدِ حَرَسِيٍّ يَقُولُ يَا أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ أَيْنَ عُلَمَاؤُكُمْ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَنْهَى عَنْ مِثْلِ هَذِهِ وَيَقُولُ إِنَّمَا هَلَكَتْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ حِينَ اتَّخَذَ هَذِهِ نِسَاؤُهُمْ  

abudawud:4168Aḥmad b. Ḥanbal And Musaddad > Yaḥyá > ʿUbaydullāh > Nāfiʿ > ʿAbdullāh

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ cursed the woman who adds some false hair and the woman who asks for it, the woman who tattoos and the woman who asks for it.  

أبو داود:٤١٦٨حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ وَمُسَدَّدٌ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي نَافِعٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ

لَعَنَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْوَاصِلَةَ وَالْمُسْتَوْصِلَةَ وَالْوَاشِمَةَ وَالْمُسْتَوْشِمَةَ  

abudawud:4169Muḥammad b. ʿĪsá And ʿUthmān b. Abū Shaybah al-Maʿná > Jarīr > Manṣūr > Ibrāhīm > ʿAlqamah > ʿAbdullāh > Laʿan Allāh al-Wāshimāt Wa-al-Mustawshimāt > Muḥammad Wa-al-Wāṣilāt

Allah has cursed the woman who tattoo and the women who have themselves tattooed, the women who add false hair (according to the version of Muhammad b. Isa) and the women who pluck hairs from their faces (according to the version on 'Uthman). The agreed version then goes: The women who spaces between their teeth for beauty, changing what Allah has created. When a woman of Banu Asad called Umm Ya'qub, who read the Qur'an (according to the version of 'Uthman) heard it, she came to him (according to the agreed version) and said: I have heard that you have cursed the women who tattoo, those have themselves tattooed, those who add false hair (according to the version of Muhammad), those pluck hairs from their faces, and those who make spaces between their teeth (according to the agreed version), for changing what Allah has created (according to the version of 'Uthman). He said: Why should I not curse those whom the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had cursed and those who were mentioned in Allah's Book ? She said: I have read it from cover to cover and have not found in it. He said: I swear by Allah, if you read it, you would have found it. He then read: What the Apostle has brought you accept, and what he has forbidden refrain from it. She said: I find some of these thing in you wife. He said: Enter (the house) and see. She said: I then entered (the house) and came out. He asked: What did you see ? She said: I did not see (anything). He said: Had it been so, she would have not have been with us. This is according to the version of 'Uthman.

abudawud:4170Ibn al-Sarḥ > Ibn Wahb > Usāmah > Abān b. Ṣāliḥ > Mujāhid b. Jabr > Ibn ʿAbbās

The woman who supplies fake hair and the one who asks for it, the woman who pulls out hair for other people and the woman who depilates herself, the woman who tattoos and the one who has it done when there is no disease to justify it have been cursed. Abu Dawud said: Wasilah means the woman who adds false hair to the hair of women. Mustawsilah means the one who asks for adding the hair to her hair. namisah means a woman who plucks hair from the brow until she makes it thin; mutanammisah means the woman who depilates herself ; washimah is a woman who tattoos in the face with antimony or ink ; mustawshimah is a woman with whom it is done.

There is no harm in fastening the hair with silk or woollen threads. Abu Dawud said: It appears that he held the view that what is prohibited is the adding of the hair of women. Abu Dawud said: Ahmad (b. hanbal) used to say: There is no harm in tying the hair with silk or woollen threads.

If anyone is presented some perfume, he should not return it, for it is a thing of good fragrance and light to bear.  

أبو داود:٤١٧٢حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ وَهَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْمَعْنَى أَنَّ أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْمُقْرِئَ حَدَّثَهُمْ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

The Prophet ﷺ said: If a woman uses perfume and passes the people so that they may get its odour, she is so-and-so, meaning severe remarks.  

أبو داود:٤١٧٣حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتُ بْنُ عُمَارَةَ حَدَّثَنِي غُنَيْمُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا اسْتَعْطَرَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ فَمَرَّتْ عَلَى الْقَوْمِ لِيَجِدُوا رِيحَهَا فَهِيَ كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ قَوْلاً شَدِيدًا

A woman met him and he found the odour of perfume in her. Her clothes were fluttering in the air. He said: O maid-servant of the Almighty, are you coming from the mosque? She replied: Yes. He said: For it did you use perfume? She replied: Yes. He said: I heard my beloved AbulQasim ﷺ say: The prayer of a woman who uses perfume for this mosque is not accepted until she returns and takes a bath like that of sexual defilement (perfectly). Abu Dawud said: Al-i'sar means dust.

The Prophet ﷺ said: If a woman fumigates herself with perfume, she must not attend the night prayer with us. Ibn Nufayl said: Isha' means night prayer.

I came to my family at night (after a journey) with my hands chapped and they perfumed me with saffron. In the morning I went to the Prophet ﷺ and gave him a greeting, but he did not respond to me nor did he welcome me. He said: Go away and wash this off yourself. I then went away and washed it off me. I came to him but there remained a spot of it on me. I give him a greeting, but he did not respond to me nor did he welcome me. He said: Go away and wash it off yourself. I then went away and washed it off me. I then came and gave him a greeting. He responded to me and welcomed me, saying: The angels do not attend the funeral of an unbeliever bringing good to it, nor a man who smears himself with saffron, nor a man who is sexually defiled. He said: He permitted the man who was sexually defiled to perform ablution when he slept, ate or drank.

Ammar said: I used khaluq. The first version is more perfect; it mentioned "taking a bath". Ibn Jurayj said: I said to Umar (a transmitter): They might be wearing ihram (robe of pilgrim)? He replied: No, they were residents.

We heard Abu Musa say: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Allah does not accept the prayer of a man who has any khaluq (perfume composed of saffron) on his body. Abu Dawud said: His grandfathers were Zaid and Ziyad.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade men to use saffron. Isma'il version has: "(forbade) man to use saffron."  

أبو داود:٤١٧٩حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ أَنَّ حَمَّادَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَاهُمْ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ

نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ التَّزَعْفُرِ لِلرِّجَالِ وَقَالَ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ أَنْ يَتَزَعْفَرَ الرَّجُلُ

The Prophet ﷺ said: The angels do not come near three: the dead body of the unbeliever, one who smears himself with khaluq, and the one who is sexually defiled except that he performs ablution.

When the Prophet of Allah ﷺ conquered Makkah. The people of Makkah began to bring their boys and he would invoke a blessing on them and rub their heads. I was brought, but as I had been perfumed with khaluq, he did not touch me because of the khaluq.

لَمَّا فَتَحَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَكَّةَ جَعَلَ أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ يَأْتُونَهُ بِصِبْيَانِهِمْ فَيَدْعُو لَهُمْ بِالْبَرَكَةِ وَيَمْسَحُ رُءُوسَهُمْ قَالَ فَجِيءَ بِي إِلَيْهِ وَأَنَا مُخَلَّقٌ فَلَمْ يَمَسَّنِي مِنْ أَجْلِ الْخَلُوقِ  

abudawud:4182ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿUmar b. Maysarah > Ḥammād b. Zayd > Salm al-ʿAlawī > Anas b. Mālik

A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he had the mark of yellowness (of saffron). The Prophet (peace be upon him rarely mentioned a thing which he disliked before a man. When he went away, he said: Would that you tell this man that he should wash this off him.

I did not see any man with locks hanging down to shoulders in red robe more beautiful than the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Muhammad b. Sulaiman added: He had hair which touched his shoulders. Abu Dawud said: Isra'il also transmitted it in a similar way from Abu Ishaq saying: "(his hair) touched his shoulders". Shu'bah added: (His hair) reached the lobes of his ears.

abudawud:4185Makhlad b. Khālid > ʿAbd al-Razzāq > Maʿmar > Thābit > Anas

The hair of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were up to the lobes of his ears.  

أبو داود:٤١٨٥حَدَّثَنَا مَخْلَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ

The hair of Messenger of Allah ﷺ were halfway down his ears.

abudawud:4188Mūsá b. Ismāʿīl > Ibrāhīm b. Saʿd > Ibn Shihāb > ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUtbah > Ibn ʿAbbās

The people of the Book used to let their hair hand down, and the polytheists used to part their hair. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ like to confirm with the People of the Book in the matters about which he had received no command. Hence he Messenger of Allah ﷺ let his forelock hang down but afterwards he parted it.  

أبو داود:٤١٨٨حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

When I parted the hair of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ I made a parting from the crow of his head and let his forelock hang between his eyes.

I came to the Prophet ﷺ and I had long hair. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw me, he said: Evil, evil! He said: I then returned and cut them off. I then came to him in the morning. He said (to me): I did not intend to do evil to you. This is much better.

The Prophet ﷺ gave the children of Ja'far three day' time to visit them. He then came to visit them, and said: Do not weep over my brother after this day.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded to clip the moustaches and grow the beard long.  

أبو داود:٤١٩٩حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ الْقَعْنَبِيُّ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَمَرَ بِإِحْفَاءِ الشَّوَارِبِ وَإِعْفَاءِ اللِّحَى  

abudawud:4200Muslim b. Ibrāhīm > Ṣadaqah al-Daqīqī > Abū ʿImrān al-Jawnī > Anas b. Mālik

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ fixed forty days to shave the pubes, paring the nails, clipping the moustaches, and plucking the hair under the armpit. Abu Dawud said: Ja'far b. Sulaiman transmitted it from Abu 'Imran on the authority of Anas. In this version he did not mention the Prophet ﷺ. He said: Forty days were fixed for us. This is a more correct version.  

أبو داود:٤٢٠٠حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ الدَّقِيقِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيُّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

وَقَّتَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَلْقَ الْعَانَةِ وَتَقْلِيمَ الأَظْفَارِ وَقَصَّ الشَّارِبِ وَنَتْفَ الإِبْطِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا مَرَّةً  

قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ رَوَاهُ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ وُقِّتَ لَنَا وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ

We used to grow beard long except during the Hajj or 'Umrah. Abu Dawud said: Istihdad means to shave the pubes.  

أبو داود:٤٢٠١حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُفَيْلٍ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ وَقَرَأَهُ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ عَلَى أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ وَرَوَاهُ أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ

كُنَّا نُعْفِي السِّبَالَ إِلاَّ فِي حَجٍّ أَوْ عُمْرَةٍ  

قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ الاِسْتِحْدَادُ حَلْقُ الْعَانَةِ

Do not pluck out grey hair. If any believer grows a grey hair in Islam, he will have light on the Day of Resurrection. (This is Sufyan's version). Yahya's version says: Allah will record on his behalf a good deed for it, and will blot out a sin for it.  

أبو داود:٤٢٠٢حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ الْمَعْنَى عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ تَنْتِفُوا الشَّيْبَ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَشِيبُ شَيْبَةً فِي الإِسْلاَمِ قَالَ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ إِلاَّ كَانَتْ لَهُ نُورًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَقَالَ فِي حَدِيثِ يَحْيَى إِلاَّ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بِهَا حَسَنَةً وَحَطَّ عَنْهُ بِهَا خَطِيئَةً  

abudawud:4203Musaddad > Sufyān > al-Zuhrī > Abū Salamah And Sulaymān b. Yasār > Abū Hurayrah Yablugh Bih

The Prophet ﷺ as saying: Jews and Christians do not dye (their beards), so act differently from them.  

أبو داود:٤٢٠٣حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ وَسُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ يَبْلُغُ بِهِ

النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ الْيَهُودَ وَالنَّصَارَى لاَ يَصْبُغُونَ فَخَالِفُوهُمْ  

abudawud:4204Aḥmad b. ʿAmr b. al-Sarḥ And ʾAḥmad b. Saʿīd al-Hamdānī > Ibn Wahb > Ibn Jurayj > Abū al-Zubayr > Jābir b. ʿAbdullāh

Abu Quhafah was brought on the day of the conquest of Mecca with head and beard while like hyssop. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Change this something, but avoid black.  

أبو داود:٤٢٠٤حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ السَّرْحِ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ

أُتِيَ بِأَبِي قُحَافَةَ يَوْمَ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ وَرَأْسُهُ وَلِحْيَتُهُ كَالثَّغَامَةِ بَيَاضًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ غَيِّرُوا هَذَا بِشَىْءٍ وَاجْتَنِبُوا السَّوَادَ

The Prophet ﷺ said: The best things with which grey hair are changed are henna and katam.  

أبو داود:٤٢٠٥حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الأَسْوَدِ الدِّيلِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّ أَحْسَنَ مَا غُيِّرَ بِهِ هَذَا الشَّيْبُ الْحِنَّاءُ وَالْكَتَمُ  

abudawud:4206Aḥmad b. Yūnus > ʿUbaydullāh / Ibn Iyād > Iyād > Abū Rimthah

I went with my father to the Prophet ﷺ. He had locks hanging down as far as the lobes of the ears stained with henna, and he was wearing two green garments.  

أبو داود:٤٢٠٦حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ إِيَادٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِيَادٌ عَنْ أَبِي رِمْثَةَ قَالَ

انْطَلَقْتُ مَعَ أَبِي نَحْوَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَإِذَا هُوَ ذُو وَفْرَةٍ بِهَا رَدْعُ حِنَّاءَ وَعَلَيْهِ بُرْدَانِ أَخْضَرَانِ  

abudawud:4207Muḥammad b. al-ʿAlāʾ > Ibn Idrīs > Ibn Abjar > Iyād b. Laqīṭ

My father said to him (the Prophet): Show me what is on your back, for I am a physician. He (the Prophet) said: You are only a soother. Its physician is He Who has created it.  

أبو داود:٤٢٠٧حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ أَبْجَرَ عَنْ إِيَادِ بْنِ لَقِيطٍ عَنْ أَبِي رِمْثَةَ فِي هَذَا الْخَبَرِ قَالَ فَقَالَ

لَهُ أَبِي أَرِنِي هَذَا الَّذِي بِظَهْرِكَ فَإِنِّي رَجُلٌ طَبِيبٌ قَالَ اللَّهُ الطَّبِيبُ بَلْ أَنْتَ رَجُلٌ رَفِيقٌ طَبِيبُهَا الَّذِي خَلَقَهَا  

abudawud:4208Ibn Bashhār > ʿAbd al-Raḥman > Sufyān > Iyād b. Laqīṭ > Abū Rimthah

I and my father came to the Prophet ﷺ. He said to a man or to my father: Who is this? He replied: He is my son. He said: Do not commit a crime on him. He had stained his beard with henna.  

أبو داود:٤٢٠٨حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ إِيَادِ بْنِ لَقِيطٍ عَنْ أَبِي رِمْثَةَ قَالَ

أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَنَا وَأَبِي فَقَالَ لِرَجُلٍ أَوْ لأَبِيهِ مَنْ هَذَا قَالَ ابْنِي قَالَ لاَ تَجْنِي عَلَيْهِ وَكَانَ قَدْ لَطَخَ لِحْيَتَهُ بِالْحِنَّاءِ
