حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الأَحْمَرُ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ كَمْ أُفِيضُ عَلَى رَأْسِي وَأَنَا جُنُبٌ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَحْثُو عَلَى رَأْسِهِ ثَلاَثَ حَثَيَاتٍ . قَالَ الرَّجُلُ إِنَّ شَعْرِي طَوِيلٌ . قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ أَكْثَرَ شَعَرًا مِنْكَ وَأَطْيَبَ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আবূ হুরাইরাহ (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। এক ব্যাক্তি তাকে জিজ্ঞেস করলো, অপবিত্রতার গোসলে আমি আমার মাথায় কতবার পানি ঢালবো? তিনি বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম হাত ভর্তি করে তাঁর মাথায় তিনবার পানি ঢালতেন। লোকটি বললো, আমার চুল তো খুব লম্বা। তিনি বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম -এর মাথার চুল ছিল তোমার চুলের চাইতে অধিক (লম্বা) এবং (তিনি ছিলেন) অধিক পবিত্রতা সচেতন।
