حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ

قَالَ: قُلْتُ لأَنَسٍ: كَيْفَ كَانَ شَعَرُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ: لَمْ يَكُنْ بِالْجَعْدِ، وَلا بِالسَّبْطِ، كَانَ يَبْلُغُ شَعَرُهُ شَحْمَةَ أُذُنَيْهِ

“I said to Anas: ‘How was the hair of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)?’ He replied: ‘It was neither crisply curled nor lank. His hair used to reach the lobes of his ears’.”
