JEWS WHO WEAR WIGS

1689

“I (Humaid, the son of Abdur Rahman) heard Mu'awiah say when he stood on the pulpit during his pilgrimage. First of all he took hold of a handful hair from the hands of a guard and then said: ‘O people of Medina, where are the scholars? I heard the Prophet of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, forbid this and say, 'The Children of Israel were ruined when their women took to wearing this kind of thing.'"

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Humaid, the son of Abdur Rahman who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
