عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! إِنِّي امْرَأَةٌ أَشُدُّ ضَفْرَ رَأْسِي؟ قَالَ: ((يُجْزِيكِ أَنْ تَصُبِّي عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ ثَلَاثًا))
It is narrated from the wife of the Messenger, Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: I said: O Messenger of Allah! I am a woman who tightly braids her hair. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Then it is sufficient for you to pour water over your head three times.
