حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يَسْدِلُ شَعْرَهُ، وَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَفْرُقُونَ رُءُوسَهُمْ، وَكَانَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ يَسْدِلُونَ رُءُوسَهُمْ، وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُحِبُّ مُوَافَقَةَ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ فِيمَا لَمْ يُؤْمَرْ فِيهِ بِشَىْءٍ، ثُمَّ فَرَقَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم رَأْسَهُ.

English translation
Narrated `Abdullah bin `Abbas: The Prophet (ﷺ) used to keep his hair falling loose while the pagans used to part their hair, and the People of the Scriptures used to keep their hair falling loose, and the Prophet (ﷺ) liked to follow the People of the Scriptures in matters about which he had not been instructed differently, but later on the Prophet (ﷺ) started parting his hair
বাংলা অনুবাদ
‘আবদুল্লাহ ইবনু ‘আব্বাস (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত, তিনি বলেন, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম চুলে সিঁথি না কেটে সোজা পিছনে দিতেন। আর মুশরিকরা তাদের চুলে সিঁথি কাটত। আহলে কিতাব সিঁথি কাটত না। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম আল্লাহর নিকট হতে কোন নির্দেশ না আসা পর্যন্ত আহলে কিতাবের অনুকরণ পছন্দ করতেন। তারপর (ওয়াহী মুতাবেক) তাঁর মাথায় সিঁথি কাটলেন। (৩৫৫৮)(আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ৩৬৫৩, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
