قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) إِنَّ النَّاسَ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ حَلْقَ الرَّأْسِ مُثْلَةٌ فَقَالَ عُمْرَةٌ لَنَا وَ مُثْلَةٌ لِأَعْدَائِنَا .
Translation
Ali Bin Muhammad, raising it, said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> that the people are saying that shaving-off the head is a mutilation. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘It is an Umrah for us<sup>asws</sup> and a mutilation for our<sup>asws</sup> enemies’.
