حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ كَانَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ - يَعْنِي - يَسْدِلُونَ أَشْعَارَهُمْ وَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَفْرُقُونَ رُءُوسَهُمْ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم تُعْجِبُهُ مُوَافَقَةُ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ فِيمَا لَمْ يُؤْمَرْ بِهِ فَسَدَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَاصِيَتَهُ ثُمَّ فَرَقَ بَعْدُ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। ইবনু আব্বাস (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেনঃ আহলে কিতাব তাদের মাথার চুল লম্বাভাবে ঝুলিয়ে দিতো। আর মুশরিকরা মাথায় সিঁথি করতো। রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-এর কাছে যে বিষয়ে আল্লাহর পক্ষ থেকে কোনো হুকুম ছিলো না, সেক্ষেত্রে তিনি আহলে কিতাবের নিয়ম পালন করতে ভালবাসতেন। তাই রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-ও তাঁর কপালের চুল লম্বাভাবে ঝুলিয়ে দেন। অতঃপর আবার সিঁথি করেন। সহীহ।
