Muwatta Malik (Yahya) 1729 — Fixing the Hair
حَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، أَنَّ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ ، قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنّ " لِي جُمَّةً أَفَأُرَجِّلُهَا ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : نَعَمْ وَأَكْرِمْهَا " . فَكَانَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ رُبَّمَا دَهَنَهَا فِي الْيَوْمِ مَرَّتَيْنِ لِمَا قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " وَأَكْرِمْهَا "
It is narrated from Yahya ibn Sa'id that Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) said to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): "My hair reaches my shoulders, should I comb it?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes! Comb it and honor the hair." Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) would sometimes apply oil twice in one day, because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had said: "Honor the hair."
