Hadith 4.2

Clothing

ENGLISH

He said God’s messenger often greased his head and combed his beard, and he often wore a head veil as though his garment (the explanation which seems to be preferred is that the word "garment’’ here refers to the cloth like a veil which was used to protect the turban from the grease.) were that of an olive-oil seller. It is transmitted in <i>Sharh as sunna</i>.

ARABIC

وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسلم يُكثر دهن رَأسه وتسريحَ لحيته وَيُكْثِرُ الْقِنَاعَ كَأَنَّ ثَوْبَهُ ثَوْبُ زَيَّاتٍ. رَوَاهُ فِي شرح السّنة
