حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ قَالَ: أَتَى عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَأَنَا أُوقِدُ تَحْتَ قِدْرٍ، وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَى وَجْهِي، أَوْ قَالَ: حَاجِبَيَّ، (١) فَقَالَ: " أَيُؤْذِيكَ (٢) هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ؟ " قَالَ: قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: " فَاحْلِقْهُ، وَصُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، أَوْ أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ، أَوْ انْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً " قَالَ أَيُّوبُ: لَا أَدْرِي بِأَيَّتِهِنَّ بَدَأَ.

It is narrated from Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) came to me while I was lighting a fire under a pot, and lice were falling onto my face. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Are the lice on your head troubling you?" I replied, "Yes!" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) then ordered him to shave his head and said, "Keep three fasts, or feed six needy people, each with two mudd of food, or offer a sacrifice of one goat. Whatever you do will suffice for you."
