Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم  stated, “Inform the people. Whoever has a need should visit the grave of the trader’s youngest son and make dua for his need; it will be fulfilled.”

The resting place of that devotee became revered and people would go in droves to seek the fulfilment of their needs. He received this rank due to his etiquette with the blessed hair. Even when noteworthy personalities would come near his resting place, they would dismount their rides and pass by it walking.^[1]

سُبْحٰنَ اللہ Dear Islamic brothers! Did you see the unique virtue of the strands of the blessed hair? May Allah Almighty also grant us love of the beloved Prophet  صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم  through the blessings of that auspicious resting place and allow us to view the blessed hair and gain its blessings.

The blessed hair in the noble Quran

Allah Almighty states in Part 30, Sūrah al-Ḍuḥā, verses 1-2:

وَ الضُّحٰی ۙ(۱) وَ الَّیۡلِ  اِذَا سَجٰی ۙ(۲)

“By the oath of the forenoon. And by the night when it covers (everything with its darkness).”^[2]

When the sun rises up high above the horizon, it is the time of ḍuḥā (forenoon). This is the same time when Allah Almighty honoured Sayyidunā Mūsā عَلَیْہِ السَّلَام with speaking to Him directly, and also when the magicians with Pharaoh recited the testimony of faith and prostrated before Allah Almighty.
