Summary
Malik transmits from Ibn Shihab, from Humayd ibn Abd al-Rahman ibn Awf (may God be pleased with him), that he heard Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan, in the year of the pilgrimage, on the pulpit, taking a lock of hair that was in the hand of a guard. He said: people of Medina, where are your scholars? I heard the Messenger of God ﷺ forbid things like this, and say: the Children of Israel were only destroyed when their women took up these. 1
