Arabic hadith text
وَعَن أنسٍ قَالَ: كَانَتْ لِي ذُؤَابَةٌ فَقَالَتْ لِي أُمِّي: لَا أَجُزُّهَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَمُدُّهَا وَيَأْخُذُهَا. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ
Translation
Anas reported: I had a forelock of hair, and my mother told me not to cut it, because the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to stretch it and hold it. Abu Dawud transmitted it.
