Did the Prophet have curly hair?

Published in Islamic History 1 min read

According to a description attributed to Ali, the Prophet Muhammad's hair was "neither curly nor wavy."

Here's a breakdown of what that implies:

  • Description from Ali: The quote states clearly that Ali, when describing the Prophet, mentioned his hair wasn't excessively curly or straight, suggesting it was somewhere in between, possibly slightly wavy or straight.
  • Absence of Curly Hair: The statement directly negates the claim that the Prophet's hair was curly.

Therefore, based on this specific account, the answer to the question is no, the Prophet did not have curly hair.
