[Machine] Ali came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during the time of Hudaybiyah while I had a lot of hair. He said, "Does the length of your hair bother you?" I replied, "Yes." He said, "Shave it off, then sacrifice a sheep, or fast for three days, or feed six poor people, giving each of them a half sa'.  

الطبراني:١٦٣٦٢ – حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ الْمُسَاوِرِ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ ثنا عَفَّانُ ثنا وُهَيْبٌ عَنْ خَالِدٍ عَنْ خَالِدٍ عَنْ أبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَة قَالَ

أَتَى عَلِيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ زَمَنَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَأَنَا كَثِيرُ الشَّعْرِ فَقَالَ «كَأَنَّ هَوَامَّ رَأْسِكَ يُؤْذِيكَ؟» فَقُلْتُ أَجَلْ فَقَالَ «أَحْلِقَهُ وَاذْبَحْ شَاةً أَوْ صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ تَصَدَّقْ بِثَلَاثَةِ آصُعٍ بَيْنَ سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينٍ»
