Just thought I'd tell you guys, I use it as my number one point in any argument with someone telling me not to grow my hair. Because themostattacks Igetareinthenameof religion. Bah, fake muslims.
Being a muslim, I've been told by many people that it is a sin in Islam, those people obviously don't know that the prophet(PBUH)had long hair and that many stories from those days proved that it was pretty normal to have longhair.

well,I have a muslim friend with long hair,and he told me that muslims are supposed to have even hair,whether it be long or short.in other words,no mohawks,mullets etc.don't know if that's true..
I think its true, muslims are not supposed to have part of their head shaved. Its either all off, or all on. It had no rules regarding hair length however and I think Muhammad had long hair from what I read too. However some fundamentalists especially ones who celebrated 9/11 and sent children to blow people up will intepret scriptures for you.

People who translate ancient writings often have political agendas, that goes for the Qu'ran and the Xtian Bible too. The best thing to do is learn and translate yourself and always ask questions. Which I see you do.
