length of hair of Rasul Allah Muhammad Sallalahu alaihe wa sallam

The saheeh reports indicate that hair of Prophet Muhammad Rasul Allah Muhammad Sallalahu alaihe wa sallam came to halfway down his ears; according to one report it reached his earlobes, and according to other reports it came between his earlobes and his shoulders, or it came down to his shoulders.

Nasreen started with 100 Darood Sharif and now reads abundant azkar daily. Alhumdulillah, Now she spends close to three hours in dhikr. Would you like to build your dhikr habit too? It’s completely free — try the digital tasbih counter here:

3 types of hair on basis of length

  • Jumma-when hair touch shoulders
  • Limma-below earlobe, above shoulder
  • Wufra– just touch earlobe

كَانَ شَعَرُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِلَى نِصْفِ أُذُنَيْهِ‏.‏

Sometimes a short pause to remember Allah brings clarity and steadiness back into our day. These reflections are simple reminders from my own journey, written to help reconnect the heart with faith and purpose.

Anas ibn Malik said:”The hair of Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) came down to the middle of his ears.”(Shamail Muhammadiya :24)

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، قَالَ‏:‏ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ‏:‏ كُنْتُ أَغْتَسِلُ أَنَا وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مِنْ إِنَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَكَانَ لَهُ شَعَرٌ فَوْقَ الْجُمَّةِ، وَدُونَ الْوَفْرَةِ‏.‏

A’isha ra said:”I used to perform the major ritual ablution, I and Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) from a single basin, and he had hair above the shoulder level and below the earlobes.”(Shamail Muhammadiya :25)

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ‏:‏ قُلْتُ لأَنَسٍ‏:‏ كَيْفَ كَانَ شَعَرُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏؟‏ قَالَ‏:‏ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِالْجَعْدِ، وَلا بِالسَّبْطِ، كَانَ يَبْلُغُ شَعَرُهُ شَحْمَةَ أُذُنَيْهِ‏.‏

Qatada said:“I said to Anas: ‘How was the hair of Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace)?’ He replied: ‘It was neither crisply curled nor lank. His hair used to reach the lobes of his ears’.”(Shamail Muhammadiya :27)
