Shama'il al-Muhammadiya, Book of The Mubarak Hair Of Prophet of Allah ﷺ

Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported:
"The hair of Messenger of Allah ﷺ reached till half of his ears".

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ شَعَرُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى نِصْفِ أُذُنَيْهِ.

Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) reported:
Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I bathed in one utensil, and the mubarak hair of Messenger of Allah ﷺ was longer than those that reached the ear lobes, and were less than those that reached the shoulders". (It means that they were not very long nor were they short, but of a medium length).

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: كُنْتُ أَغْتَسِلُ أَنَا وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ إِنَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَكَانَ لَهُ شَعَرٌ فَوْقَ الْجُمَّةِ، وَدُونَ الْوَفْرَةِ.

Baraa bin Aazib (may Allah be pleased with him) reports:
"Messenger of Allah ﷺ was of average hight, and the portion between the two shoulders was wide. His hair was till his ear lobes".

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو قَطَنٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَرْبُوعًا، بَعِيدَ مَا بَيْنَ الْمِنْكَبَيْنِ، وَكَانَتْ جُمَّتُهُ تَضْرِبُ شَحْمَةَ أُذُنَيْهِ.

Qataadah bin Da'aamah As-Sadusi relates:
"I asked Anas R.A., 'How was the hair of Messenger of Allah ﷺ?'. He replied: 'It was not very twisted, nor very straight. It had a slight twist and was a bit curled, and reached till his ear-lobes'".

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لأَنَسٍ: كَيْفَ كَانَ شَعَرُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ: لَمْ يَكُنْ بِالْجَعْدِ، وَلا بِالسَّبْطِ، كَانَ يَبْلُغُ شَعَرُهُ شَحْمَةَ أُذُنَيْهِ.

Umme Haani bint Abi Taalib (may Allah be pleased with him) says:
"Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Makkah once after the hijrah. His mubarak hair had four plaits".

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي عُمَرَ الْمَكِّيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ أُمِّ هَانِئٍ بِنْتِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، قَالَتْ: قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَكَّةَ قَدْمَةً، وَلَهُ أَرْبَعُ غَدَائِرَ.

It is reported from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the hair of Messenger of Allah ﷺ reached till the middle of the ears.

حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ: أَنَّ شَعَرَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، كَانَ إِلَى أَنْصَافِ أُذُنَيْهِ.

Ibne Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) says:
"Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to leave his hair the way it naturally was, without making a path in the hair (parting hair). The reason being that the mushrikeen (polytheists) used to make a path in their hair, and the Ahlul Kitaab (People of the Book) did not do so. In the early periods Messenger of Allah ﷺ preferred to follow the Ahlul Kitaab, rather than others, in matters where no command had came from Allah. Later this was abrogated, and Messenger of Allah ﷺ began apposing the ways of the Ahlul Kitaab after this".

حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ نُ للّعَبْدِ اَهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُسْدِلُ شَعَرَهُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْوَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَفْرِقُونَ رُؤُوسَهُمْ، وَكَانَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ يُسْدِلُونَ رُؤُوسَهُمْ، وَكَانَ يُحِبُّ مُوَافَقَةَ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ فِيمَا لَمْ يُؤْمَرْ فِيهِ بِشَيْءٍ، ثُمَّ فَرَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَأْسَهُ.
