It is narrated from Saeed bin Musayyib, he says: Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) delivered a sermon on the pulpit of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) or the pulpit of Madinah Munawwarah, and he took out a tuft of hair and said about it: I did not know that anyone other than the Jews does this act; the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has declared this to be false.
