The Prophet ﷺ came to me at the time of Al-Hudaibiya Pledge while lice were falling on my face. He said, "Are the lice of your head troubling you?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Shave your head and fast for three days, or feed six poor persons, or slaughter a sheep as sacrifice." (The sub-narrator, Aiyub said, "I do not know with which of these three options he started.")  

أَتَى عَلَىَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَمَنَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَى وَجْهِي فَقَالَ {أَيُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ} قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاحْلِقْ وَصُمْ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ أَوِ انْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً قَالَ أَيُّوبُ لاَ أَدْرِي بِأَىِّ هَذَا بَدَأَ  

The Prophet ﷺ came to me during the period of Al-Hudaibiya, while I was lighting fire underneath a cooking pot and lice were falling down my head. He said, "Do your lice hurt your?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Shave your head and fast for three days or feed six poor persons or slaughter a sheep as a sacrifice:"  

أَتَى عَلَىَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَمَنَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَأَنَا أُوقِدُ تَحْتَ بُرْمَةٍ وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَنَاثَرُ عَنْ رَأْسِي فَقَالَ أَيُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّكَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاحْلِقْ وَصُمْ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةً أَوِ انْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً قَالَ أَيُّوبُ لاَ أَدْرِي بِأَيَّتِهِنَّ بَدَأَ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to me on the occasion of Hudaibiya and I was kindling fire under my cooking pot and lice were creeping on my face. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Do the vermins harm your head? I said: Yes. He said: Get your head shaved and (in lieu of it) observe fasts for three days or feed six needy persons, or offer sacrifice (of an animal). Ayyub said: I do not know with what (type of expiation) did he commence (the statement).  

أَتَى عَلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ زَمَنَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَأَنَا أُوقِدُ تَحْتَ قَالَ الْقْوَارِيرِيُّ قِدْرٍ لِي وَقَالَ أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ بُرْمَةٍ لِي وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَى وَجْهِي فَقَالَ أَيُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاحْلِقْ وَصُمْ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ أَوِ انْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً قَالَ أَيُّوبُ فَلاَ أَدْرِي بِأَىِّ ذَلِكَ بَدَأَ  

Do these vermin trouble you? He (Ka'b) said: Yes. The Messenger of Allah (way peace be upon him) said: Shave your head and give some quantity of food enough to feed six needy persons (faraq is equal to three sa's), or observe fast for three days or offer sacrifice of a sacrificial animal. Ibn Najih (one of the narrators) said:" Or sacrifice a goat."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَرَّ بِهِ وَهُوَ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ مَكَّةَ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ وَهُوَ يُوقِدُ تَحْتَ قِدْرٍ وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَهَافَتُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ فَقَالَ أَيُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّكَ هَذِهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاحْلِقْ رَأْسَكَ وَأَطْعِمْ فَرَقًا بَيْنَ سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ وَالْفَرَقُ ثَلاَثَةُ آصُعٍ أَوْ صُمْ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوِ انْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ أَوِ اذْبَحْ شَاةً  

Do these vermins trouble your head? He said: Yes. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Shave your head. Then sacrifice a goat or observe fasts for three days or give three sits of dates to feed six needy persons.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَرَّ بِهِ زَمَنَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ آذَاكَ هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ احْلِقْ رَأْسَكَ ثُمَّ اذْبَحْ شَاةً نُسُكًا أَوْ صُمْ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطْعِمْ ثَلاَثَةَ آصُعٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ عَلَى سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ  

Ka’ab bin ‘Ujrah said that the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ came upon him (during their stay) at Al Hudaibiyyah. He asked do the insects of your head (lice) annoy you? He said Yes. The Prophet ﷺ said Shave your head, then sacrifice a sheep as offering or fast three days or give three sa’s of dates to six poor people.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَرَّ بِهِ زَمَنَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فَقَالَ قَدْ آذَاكَ هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ احْلِقْ ثُمَّ اذْبَحْ شَاةً نُسُكًا أَوْ صُمْ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطْعِمْ ثَلاَثَةَ آصُعٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ عَلَى سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ  

from Ka'b bin 'Ujrah who said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to me while I was lighting a fire under a pot, and lice were falling on my face, or on my eye-brows. He said: 'Are your lice bothering you?'" [He said:] "I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Then shave your head and offer a sacrifice, or fast three days, or feed six needy people.'" Ayyub said: "I do not know which of them he started with."  

أَتَى عَلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا أُوقِدُ تَحْتَ قِدْرٍ وَالْقَمْلُ تَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَى جَبْهَتِي أَوْ قَالَ حَاجِبِي فَقَالَ أَتُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاحْلِقْ رَأْسَكَ وَانْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً أَوْ صُمْ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطَعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ قَالَ أَيُّوبُ لاَ أَدْرِي بِأَيَّتِهِنَّ بَدَأَ  

from Ka'b bin 'Ujrah who said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to me while I was lighting a fire under a pot, and lice were falling on my face, or on my eye-brows. He said: 'Are your lice bothering you?'" [He said:] "I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Then shave your head and offer a sacrifice, or fast three days, or feed six needy people.'" Ayyub said: "I do not know which of them he started with." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2974)  

أَتَى عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا أُوقِدُ تَحْتَ قِدْرٍ وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَى وَجْهِي أَوْ قَالَ حَاجِبَيَّ فَقَالَ أَيُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاحْلِقْهُ وَصُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ أَوْ انْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً قَالَ أَيُّوبُ لَا أَدْرِي بِأَيَّتِهِنَّ بَدَأَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ passed by me while I was sitting under a pot and lice were crawling from my head. He ﷺ asked, "Are the lice bothering you?" I replied, "Yes." He ﷺ said, "Shave your head, fast for three days, or feed six poor people."  

مَرَّ بِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا أُوقِدُ تَحْتَ قِدْرٍ لِي وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَهَافَتُ مِنْ رَأْسِي فَقَالَ ﷺ «أَتُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ؟ » قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ «انْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً أَوْ صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوِ اطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by me in Hudaybiyah while I was sitting near a cooking pot or a small hole, and lice were crawling on my face. He said, "Are your lice bothering you, Ka'b?" I replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Shave your head and perform a ritual purification (Ghusl) or fast for three days, or feed six poor people as expiation."  

مَرَّ بِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَأَنَا أُوقِدُ تَحْتَ قِدْرٍ لِي أَوْ تَحْتَ بُرْمَةٍ لِي وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَهَافَتُ عَلَى وَجْهِي فَقَالَ «أَتُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّكَ يَا كَعْبُ؟ » قُلْتُ نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «فَاحْلِقْ رَأْسَكَ وَانْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً أَوْ صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطْعِمْ فَرَقًا بَيْنَ سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ»  

Ka’ab bin ‘Ujrah said that the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ came upon him (during their stay) at Al Hudaibiyyah. He asked do the insects of your head (lice) annoy you? He said Yes. The Prophet ﷺ said Shave your head, then sacrifice a sheep as offering or fast three days or give three sa’s of dates to six poor people. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1856)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَرَّ بِهِ زَمِنَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فَقَالَ «قَدْ آذَاكَ هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ؟ » قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «احْلِقْ ثُمَّ اذْبَحْ شَاةً نُسُكًا أَوْ صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطْعِمْ ثَلَاثَةَ آصُعٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ عَلَى سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ»
