Taleban and haircuts

Taleban arrested all the barbers responsible for cutting customers hair in “Leonardo dicaprio style” and those who already had it. Is there any evidence in the Hadith that says that the haircut should be of a particular style?
Thanks…

No.
BTW its expression of thier utmost frustration and hatred.

One should refrain from making statements when one has no knowledge about something:

Leonardo dicaprio style hair cut is not acceptable in Islam, rather we should follow the Sunnah of Prophet (PBUH) in this regards.

Sunan Abu-Dawud, Book 32 (Kitab Al-Libas), Number 4078:

Narrated Sahl Ibn al-Hanzaliyyah:

** “…….The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: Khuraym al-Asadi would be a fine man were it not for the length of his hair, which reaches the shoulders, and the way he lets his lower garment hang down. When Khuraym heard that, he hurriedly, took a knife, cut his hair in line with his ears and raised his lower garment half way up his legs…….”**

Sunan Abu-Dawud Book 33 (Kitab Al-Tarajjul), Number 4173:

Narrated Anas ibn Malik:

** “The hair of the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) were up to the lobes of his ears.” **

Sunan Abu-Dawud Book 33 (Kitab Al-Tarajjul), Number 4178:

Narrated Wa'il ibn Hujr:

** “I came to the Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) and I had long hair. When the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) saw me, he said: Evil, evil! He said: I then returned and cut them off. I then came to him in the morning. He said (to me): I did not intend to do evil to you. This is much better.” **

Sunan Abu-Dawud Book 33 (Kitab Al-Tarajjul), Number 4183:

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar:

** “The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) saw a boy with part of his head shaved and part left unshaven. He forbade them to do that, saying: Shave it all or leave it all.”**

Comment on Hadeeth Number 4183: In my opinion this is similar to shaving hair from above the ears and leaving it in the middle of the head.

Are you suggesting long hair is inherently "evil"? What, did the mushrikeen have long hair too?

Jesus had long hair.

What is your defination of long hair? How do you know Jesus (PBUH) had long hair?

I will assume long hair to be longer than what your hadiths had cut them to - hair to the shoulders, or even shorter - hair below the lobes of the ears.

As for Jesus's hair, I can't know for sure as I wasn't there, but most statues and stain glass images in the churches I've seen show him with hair at least that long.

why is it that most molvies have longish hair?
