[Machine] Abdullah came across a man prostrating, with his head shaved. He unraveled his head covering and sent it as a gift. Then he waited until the man finished praying and said to him, "Indeed, your hair prostrates with you, so do not shave it, for you will be rewarded for every single hair of it." The man said, "I was afraid that it would become infested with lice." Abdullah replied, "If it had become infested with lice, it would have been better for you."
مَرَّ عَبْدُ اللهِ عَلَى رَجُلٍ سَاجِدٍ قَدْ عَقَصَ رَأْسَهُ فَحَلَّ عَقِيصَتَهُ فَأَرْسَلَهَا ثُمَّ انْتَظَرَ حَتَّى صَلَّى فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ «إِنَّ» شَعْرَكَ يَسْجُدُ مَعَكَ فَلَا تَعْقِصْهُ فَإِنَّ لَكَ بِكُلِّ شَعْرَةٍ مِنْهُ أَجْرًا فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ إِنِّي خِفْتُ أَنْ يَتَتَرَّبَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ «إِنْ يَتَتَرَّبْ خَيْرٌ لَكَ»
