حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ , قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ , عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ وَرْقَاءَ , عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ , عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ , قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي لَيْلَى , عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ , أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَآهُ وَقَمْلُهُ يَسْقُطُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ , فَقَالَ : " أَيُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّكَ " , قَالَ : نَعَمْ , فَأَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَحْلِقَ وَهُوَ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ لَمْ يُبَيِّنْ لَهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ يَحِلُّونَ بِهَا وَهُمْ عَلَى طَمَعٍ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا مَكَّةَ , فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ الْفِدْيَةَ , فَأَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يُطْعِمَ فَرَقًا بَيْنَ سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ , أَوْ يُهْدِيَ شَاةً , أَوْ يَصُومَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ .
Narrated Ka`b bin Ujra: That Allah's Apostle saw him with the lice falling (from his head) on his face. Allah's Apostle said, "Are your lice troubling you? Ka`b said, "Yes." Allah's Apostle thus ordered him to shave his head while he was at Al-Hudaibiya. Up to then there was no indication that all of them would finish their state of Ihram and they hoped that they would enter Mecca. Then the order of Al-Fidya was revealed, so Allah's Apostle ordered Ka`b to feed six poor persons with one Faraq of food or slaughter a sheep or fast for three days.
