اُردوEn
عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ رَأَى عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ الْحَارِثِ يُصَلِّي وَرَأْسُهُ مَعْقُوصٌ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ فَقَامَ وَرَاءَهُ وَجَعَلَ يَحُلُّهُ وَأَقَرَّ لَهُ الْآخَرُ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ: مَا لَكَ وَرَأْسِي؟ قَالَ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((إِنَّمَا مَثَلُ هَٰذَا كَمَثَلِ الَّذِي يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ مَكْتُوفٌ))
Kuraib says: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) saw Abdullah bin Harith praying in such a state that his hair was tied at the back of his head. He began to untie his hair, and he (Abdullah bin Harith) allowed him to do so. But after the prayer, he turned to Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "What did you have to do with my head?" He replied: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whoever prays in this manner, his example is like that of a man who performs prayer with his hands tied."
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The meaning of the marfu‘ hadith is that just as the hands prostrate, so too do the hair prostrate; just as it is not appropriate for the hands to be tied (together) during prostration, likewise it is also inappropriate for the hair to be tied (up) during prostration.
