رَوَى مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: « « اَلْحَجُّ أَشْهُرٌ مَعْلُومٰاتٌ »، - شَوَّالٌ وَ ذُو اَلْقَعْدَةِ وَ ذُو اَلْحِجَّةِ وَ مَنْ أَرَادَ اَلْحَجَّ وَفَّرَ شَعْرَهُ إِذَا نَظَرَ إِلَى هِلاَلِ ذِي اَلْقَعْدَةِ وَ مَنْ أَرَادَ اَلْعُمْرَةَ وَفَّرَ شَعْرَهُ شَهْراً».
Mu‘awiyah ibn Ammar narrated from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said: "The Hajj is in well-known months" (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:197)—Shawwal, Dhu al-Qa‘dah, and Dhu al-Hijjah. Whoever intends to perform Hajj should let their hair grow from the sighting of the crescent of Dhu al-Qa‘dah. Whoever intends to perform ‘Umrah should let their hair grow for a month."

وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلْحِجَامَةِ وَ حَلْقِ اَلْقَفَا فِي أَشْهُرِ اَلْحَجِّ قَالَ «لاَ بَأْسَ وَ لاَ بَأْسَ بِالنُّورَةِ وَ اَلسِّوَاكِ ».
It is narrated from Sama‘ah, who said: I asked Imam عليه السلام about cupping and shaving the nape during the months of Hajj. Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no harm in it, nor in using Nuura (depilatory cream) or a toothstick (siwak)."
