Consoling The Bald-headed (الأصلع)

Question: Some people say that the Prophet ﷺ sought refuge from the bald-headed? Sheikh Abdulhameed Az-Zu'kari ḥafidhahullāh: This is not correct. ’Umar ibn Al-Khattab was bald, ’Uthmān ibn ’Affān was bald, and Mu’āwiyah ibn Abi Sufyān was also bald. There were numerous bald men among the Salaf, may Allāh be pleased with them. What does baldness have to do with virtue or lack thereof? If Allāh created a man with dark skin, can we say this is a flaw? No; Allāh created him in this way, and similarly, Allāh created some men bald or missing limbs. There are sayings that people circulate which have no basis in the Sharī‘ah. There is a humorous clip titled: القول الأنفع لمداراة الأخ الأصلع "The Best Approach in Dealing with a Bald Brother" [In this clip] it mentions examples of those who are bald-headed. It mentions that some of the noblemen of Quraysh were bald and that women favoured bald men as husbands. It also states that one benefit of baldness is that children can playfully hit their fathers on the head and enjoy it. Such things (being bald), my brothers, are not matters to occupy oneself with. The common folk say, “I seek refuge in Allāh from a solar bald-head (a shining scalp),” referring to someone bald at the very top of his head. @madrasatuna
