بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي صِفَةِ وَجْهِهِ وَشَعْرِهِ ﷺ
Chapter on What Has Been Reported Regarding the Description of His Face and Hair ﷺ
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 11137 — on What Has Been Reported Regarding
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ شَعْرُهُ أُذُنَيْهِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, that the hair of the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, in length did not extend beyond his ears.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Hafiz Ibn Hajar said: This hadith is the opposite of the hadith in which it is mentioned that the hair of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would reach his shoulders. The answer given to this is that most often the hair of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would reach up to his earlobes, and if it was straightened, it would reach the shoulders. Or, these two ahadith will be interpreted as referring to two different states. (Fath al-Bari: 6/572)
