Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ أَيُّوبُ سَمِعْتُ حَفْصَةَ، تَقُولُ حَدَّثَتْنَا أُمُّ عَطِيَّةَ، أَنَّهُنَّ جَعَلْنَ رَأْسَ ابْنَةِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ثَلاَثَةَ قُرُونٍ . قُلْتُ نَقَضْنَهُ وَجَعَلْنَهُ ثَلاَثَةَ قُرُونٍ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ .
Translation
Yusuf ibn Sa‘id narrated to us: Hajjaj narrated to us, from Ibn Jurayj, who said: Ayyub said: I heard Hafsah say: Umm ‘Atiyyah told us that they arranged the hair of the Prophet’s daughter in three braids. I asked: ‘Did they undo her hair and then make it into three braids?’ She said: ‘Yes.’
