35/15. Chapter:
What Has Been Reported About A Concession For That
Sunan Abi Dawud
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ، عَنْ مَيْمُونِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ كَانَتْ لِي ذُؤَابَةٌ فَقَالَتْ لِي أُمِّي لاَ أَجُزُّهَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَمُدُّهَا وَيَأْخُذُ بِهَا .
Narrated Anas ibn Malik: I had a hanging lock of hair. My mother said to me: I shall not cut it, for the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to stretch it our and hold it.
