Hadith 1007

1007 - ثنا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ: ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَجُلٌ لِأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: إِنِّي رَجُلٌ كَثِيرُ الشَّعْرِ، وَلَا يَكْفِينِي ثَلَاثُ حَثَيَاتٍ، فَقَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْكَ شَعْرًا، وَأَطْيَبَ مِنْكَ، وَكَانَ يُحْثِي عَلَي رَأْسِهِ ثَلَاثًا»
Saeed Maqbari narrates: A man said to Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him): I am a person with a lot of hair, pouring water three times with both hands will not be enough for me. So Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The hair of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was even more than this, and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was purer than you, but he (peace and blessings be upon him) would pour water on his head only three times.
