حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَىعَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ قَالَ
رَآنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَمْلِي يَتَسَاقَطُ عَلَى وَجْهِي، فَقَالَ: أَتُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّكَ هَذِهِ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَحْلِقَ، وَهُمْ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَلَمْ يُبَيِّنْ لَهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ يَحْلِقُونَ بِهَا، وَهُمْ عَلَى طَمَعٍ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا مَكَّةَ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ الْفِدْيَةَ، فَأَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ أُطْعِمَ فَرَقًا بَيْنَ سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ، أَوْ أَصُومَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، أَوْ أَذْبَحَ شَاةً

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw me while my lice were falling on my face. He said: 'Are these vermin of yours harming you?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: So he ordered me to shave, while they were at al-Hudaybiyah and it had not been made clear to them that they would shave there, and they were hoping to enter Makkah. Then Allah revealed the ransom, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered me to feed a faraq among six poor persons, or fast three days, or slaughter a sheep.

- Ibn Ḥazm
خبر كعب بن عجرة الصحيح فيما رواه ابن أبي ليلى والباقون روايتهم مضطربة موهومة فوجب ترك ما اضطرب فيه والرجوع إلى رواية عبد الرحمن التي لم تضطرب
machine translationThe sound report of Kaʿb b. ʿUjrah is what Ibn Abī Laylā narrated, while the narrations of the others are unsettled (muḍṭarib) and mistaken. It is therefore obligatory to abandon what is unsettled in it and to return to the narration of ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, which is not unsettled.
