Ibn Umar reported that Allah's Messenger ﷺ got his head shaved on the occasion of the Farewell Pilgrimage.
The shaving of the head during this pilgrimage is also symbolic in nature; it symbolizes a new beginning and a fresh start for those who take part in it. It is meant to signify that we should leave behind any negative thoughts or feelings we may have had before embarking on this journey and instead focus on being closer to Allah through prayer, reflection, and meditation. By doing so, we can become better Muslims who are more devoted to their faith than ever before.
