Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَكَانَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ يَعْنِي يَسْدِلُونَ أَشْعَارَهُمْ وَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَفْرُقُونَ رُءُوسَهُمْ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تُعْجِبُهُ مُوَافَقَةُ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ فِيمَا لَمْ يُؤْمَرْ بِهِ فَسَدَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَاصِيَتَهُ ثُمَّ فَرَقَ بَعْدُ
English Translation
Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Musa bin Isma'il] berkata, telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ibrahim bin Sa'd] berkata, telah mengabarkan kepadaku [Ibnu Syihab] dari [Ubaidullah bin Abdullah bin Utbah] dari [Ibnu Abbas] ia berkata, "orang-orang ahli kitab biasa mengurai rambutnya dan orang-orang musyrik biasa membelah rambut kepada mereka menjadi dua bagian. Sedangkan Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam lebih senang menyamai orang-orang ahli kitab pada hal-hal yang tidak ada perintahnya. Maka Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam pun mengurai rambutnya bagian depan, kemudian membelahnya setelah itu."
