Is there anything left today of the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) hair or relics that people seek blessing from?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: A questioner from outside this country says that in some places there are relics claimed to be from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), such as hair, a staff, or other things. Is this true? And if it is true, is it permissible to seek blessing from them?

Answer:
This is a lie. This is a lie and deception by those who want to spread shirk (associating partners with Allah) among people, or who eat up their money with these superstitions. Nothing remains of the relics of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), neither of his hair nor of his body. No.
