Sahih al-Bukhari 5691 (Book 77, Hadith 135)
Apostle forbidding Al-Qaza’.” ‘Ubaidullah added: I said, “What is Al-Qaza’?” ‘Ubaidullah pointed
(towards his head) to show us and added, “Nafi` said, ‘It is when a boy has his head shaved leaving a
tuft of hair here and a tuft of hair there.” Ubaidullah pointed towards his forehead and the sides of his
head. ‘Ubaidullah was asked, “Does this apply to both girls and boys?” He said, “I don’t know, but
Nafi` said, ‘The boy.'” ‘Ubaidullah added, “I asked Nafi` again, and he said, ‘As for leaving hair on
the temples and the back part of the boy’s head, there is no harm, but Al-Qaza’ is to leave a tuft of hair
on his forehead unshaved while there is no hair on the rest of his head, and also to leave hair on either
side of his head.'”
