ahmad:16851ʿAffān > Shuʿbah > ʿAmr b. Murrah > Saʿīd b. al-Musayyib

[Machine] Mu'awiyah delivered a speech from the pulpit of the Prophet ﷺ or from the pulpit of the city, and then he presented a lock of hair. He said, "I never thought that anyone other than the Jews would do this. Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called it deceiving."  

أحمد:١٦٨٥١حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ مُرَّةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيِّبِ قَالَ

خَطَبَ مُعَاوِيَةُ عَلَى مِنْبَرِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَوْ مِنْبَرِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَأَخْرَجَ كُبَّةً مِنْ شَعَرٍ قَالَ مَا كُنْتُ أَرَى أَنَّ أَحَدًا يَفْعَلُ هَذَا غَيْرَ الْيَهُودِ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سَمَّاهُ الزُّورَ

Mu'awiya came to Medina for the last time and delivered a sermon. He took out a tuft of hair and said, "I thought that none used to do this (i.e. use false hair) except Jews. The Prophet ﷺ labelled such practice, (i.e. the use of false hair), as cheating.
