Question

Which oils were used by Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) on the hair?

 

Answer

I haven’t seen any specification regarding the type of oil Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) would apply to his blessed hair.

However Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) did encourage the use of olive oil (Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 1851-1852)

It is possible that he too used olive oil (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam).

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
