حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يَسْدِلُ شَعَرَهُ، وَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَفْرُقُونَ رُءُوسَهُمْ فَكَانَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ يَسْدِلُونَ رُءُوسَهُمْ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُحِبُّ مُوَافَقَةَ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ فِيمَا لَمْ يُؤْمَرْ فِيهِ بِشَىْءٍ، ثُمَّ فَرَقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم رَأْسَهُ.

বাংলা অনুবাদ
ইবনু ‘আব্বাস (রহ.) হতে বর্ণিত। আল্লাহর রাসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম তাঁর চুল পিছনে দিকে আঁচড়ে রাখতেন আর মুশ্রিকগণ তাদের চুল দু‘ভাগ করে সিঁথি কেটে রাখত। আহলে কিতাব তাদের চুল পিছন দিকে আঁচড়ে রাখত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম যে কোন বিষয়ে আল্লাহর নির্দেশ না পাওয়া পর্যন্ত আহলে কিতাবের অনুসরণ পছন্দ করতেন। অতঃপর নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম তাঁর চুল দু’ভাগ করে সিঁথি করে রাখতে লাগলেন। (৩৯৪৪, ৫৯১৭, মুসলিম ৪৩/২৪ হাঃ ২৩৩৬, আহমাদ ১২৩৬৪) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ৩২৯৪, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
