[28841 86 – ( … ) Ka'b bin 'Ujrah [may Allah be pleased with hen narrated that he went out with the Prophet in Ihrâm, and his head and beard were infested with lice. News of that reached the Prophet and he sent for him and called the barber to shave his head, then he said to him: "Do you have an animal to sacrifice?" He said: "I cannot afford that." So he told him to fast for three days, or to feed six poor persons, giving one $â' to each two poor persons. Then Allah revealed the verse "And whosoever of you is ill or has an ailment in his scalp (necessitating shaving)" 11 specifically about him, then it applied to all the Muslims in general.
