Sunan Abu Dawud 4171 — Hair Extensions

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيَكٌ ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، قَالَ : " لَا بَأْسَ بِالْقَرَامِلِ " ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : كَأَنَّهُ يَذْهَبُ إِلَى أَنَّ الْمَنْهِيَّ عَنْهُ شُعُورُ النِّسَاءِ ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : كَانَ أَحْمَدُ يَقُولُ الْقَرَامِلُ لَيْسَ بِهِ بَأْسٌ .
Saeed bin Jubair said: There is no harm in fastening the hair with silk or woollen threads. Abu Dawud said: It appears that he held the view that what is prohibited is the adding of the hair of women. Abu Dawud said: Ahmad (b. hanbal) used to say: There is no harm in tying the hair with silk or woollen threads.

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
This statement is weak in its chain of narration; however, there appears to be no harm in using a braid made of threads, as is also clear from the statement of Imam Ahmad rahimahullah.
And Allah knows best.
