حَدَّثَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ سَالِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سَيَّارٌ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَي بْنُ يَحْيَي ، وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ، عَنْ سَيَّارٍ ، عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزَاةٍ ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ ذَهَبْنَا لِنَدْخُلَ ، فَقَالَ : " أَمْهِلُوا حَتَّى نَدْخُلَ لَيْلًا أَيْ عِشَاءً كَيْ تَمْتَشِطَ الشَّعِثَةُ وَتَسْتَحِدَّ الْمُغِيبَةُ " .
It has been narrated on the authority of Jabir bin 'Abdullah who said: We accompanied the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) on an expedition. When we came (back) to Madinah and were going to enter our houses, he said: Wait and enter (your houses) in the later part of the evening so that a woman with dishevelled hair may have used the comb, and a woman whose husband has been away from home may have removed the hair from her private parts.
