The ruling on a woman combing and gathering her hair to the back?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good. She asks: What is the ruling on combing the hair to the back and making it into a single braid and placing it in a clip on the neck, given that it does not show when wearing the abaya, for a woman? Please advise us on this?

Answer:
Or rather, it is more fitting for a woman to let her hair hang down, either in tresses from the sides of her head, or to make it into braids; this is the most fitting and best for a woman. As for gathering it on top of her head, that is not permissible; because it gives it a bulk, and it may be what is meant by the description of the women in the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): "Clothed yet naked, their heads like the humps of camels, swaying and tilting, their heads like the humps of the Bakhit, which are tilted." The Bakhit is a type of camel that has two humps. So if she gathers her hair and it has a bulk next to the bulk of the head, it is as if she has humps like the tilted humps of the Bakhit. Likewise, gathering it and letting it hang from the back of the neck is only for the dead woman. As for the living woman, as we mentioned previously, she does not gather her hair from the back, because some scholars were strict about this and denied it to the utmost degree of denial.
