Hairstyle of the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

Q: What is the hairstyle of the Prophet Mohammed sallallahu alaihi wa sallam?

A: There are various lengths of his hair mentioned in the Ahaadeeth:
a) Till half of his ear
b) Till his ear lobes
c) Till near his shoulders
d) He also shaved his head.
He would oil his hair often. When combing, he would make a path in the middle. He instructed that hair should be combed occassionally, not on a daily basis. (Shamaa'il Tirmidhi)

Long or Short Kurta

Q: Is it a sunnat to wear the long (Arab style) kurta or the shorter kurta with a slit?

A: A kurta that comes down till the shins is sunnat. That was the length of the kurta of Rasoolullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). However, no specific style of kurta has been defined as sunnat by the Ulema. So whether it has a slit on the sides or not, it will fit the sunnah description provided the length is as mentioned above, i.e. till the shins. The long Arabian kurtas that fall till the ankles cannot be termed sunnah. And if the kurta flows below the ankles, then it is haraam, for the hadith prohibits dragging any garment below the ankles.
