Allah's Mercy for Those Who Shave or Clip Their Hair

SUMMARY: This hadith is about Allah's mercy and compassion for those who shave their heads or clip their hair.

Abdullah b. Umar (Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger as having observed: O Allah, have mercy upon those who get their heads shaved. They (the Companions) said: Messenger of Allah, (what about those) who have got their hair clipped? He said: O Allah, have mercy upon those who have got their heads shaved. They (again) said: Allah's Messenger, (what about those) who have got their hair clipped? Thereupon he said: (O Allah, have mercy upon those) who have got their hair clipped.
وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمِ الْمُحَلِّقِينَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالُوا وَالْمُقَصِّرِينَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمِ الْمُحَلِّقِينَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالُوا وَالْمُقَصِّرِينَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ وَالْمُقَصِّرِينَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the mercy and compassion of Allah towards those who shave their heads or clip their hair. It was narrated by Abdullah b. Umar, one of the companions of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, that he said "O Allah, have mercy upon those who get their heads shaved." The companions asked what about those who have clipped their hair instead? To which Prophet Muhammad ﷺ replied "O Allah, have mercy upon those who have got their hair clipped." This hadith teaches us that no matter how we choose to groom ourselves, whether it be shaving our head completely or just clipping our hair a bit, we should always remember to ask for God's mercy and compassion in all things we do. We should also remember that God loves us no matter what choices we make in life and will always be there to guide us on the right path if we seek His help.
