It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) disliked ten things: yellow colour (that is, the perfume khaluq); changing (the colour of) grey hair; letting the waist-wrapper trail; wearing a gold ring; tying amulets; reciting incantations (ruqyah) other than with the Mu'awwidhat (the Qur'anic surahs of refuge); throwing dice (ka'b); displaying adornment in an improper place (showing adornment before non-mahram men); practising withdrawal ('azl) in an unlawful manner; and harming a child (through pregnancy during the nursing period), though without declaring it forbidden. This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Khuraym bin Fatik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Khuraym, were it not for two traits in you, you would be a complete man." He said: O Messenger of Allah, what are they? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Your letting your waist-wrapper hang down (below the ankles), and your letting your hair grow long." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wore a shirt which was above the ankles, and its sleeves reached to the fingers. This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both); he said: Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) put on a new shirt, then said: O my son, pull my sleeve, and put your hand against the tips of my fingers, then cut off whatever extends beyond that. He said: So I cut off (the excess) from both sleeves, and the ends of the sleeves became uneven. I said: Shall I even it with scissors? He said: O my son, leave it; this is how I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) do it. Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: That shirt remained with my father until it wore out, and when we prayed, I would see some of its threads falling onto his feet. This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
