The Prophet used to copy the people of the Scriptures in matters in which there was no order from

their hair. So the Prophet let his hair hang down first, but later on he parted it.

head. ‘Ubaidullah was asked, “Does this apply to both girls and boys?” He said, “I don’t know, but Nafi’

either side of his head.'”
