Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Humay ibn Abdar-Rahman ibn Awf heard Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan say from the mimbar inthe year that he performed the hajj, holding a lock of hair (i.e. ahairpiece) which he took from one of his guards, "People of Madina!Where are your learned men? I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allahbless him and grant him peace, forbid the like of this, saying, 'TheBanu Israil were destroyed when their women started to use this.' "
