Prophet Muhammad Hairstyle Like The Jews
“Another early report, by Muḥammad’s cousin Ibn ʿAbbās, claims that Muḥammad wore his hair open, both to distinguish himself from the pagan Arabs who braided their hair and to follow the example of the Jews and the Christians, because he preferred to adopt the ways of the People of the Book in matters regarding which he had received no specific divine guidance.” Muḥammad b. ʿĪsā al-Tirmidhī, al-Shamāʾil al-muḥammadiyya, ed. Muḥammad ʿAwwāma (n.p.: n.p., 2001), 112. Referenced from: https://brill.com/view/book/edcoll/9789004427952/BP000013.xml#ref_FN000479
