The ruling on limiting the wiping to the forelock in the ablution

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Regarding the ablution, the sister asks: Is it obligatory for a woman to wipe the entire head in the prayer, or is the forelock sufficient?

Answer:
No, it is necessary to wipe over the entire head; the man and the woman are equal in this. He places his hands, wet with water, on the front of his head, then moves them to the back of his head, and then returns them to the place where he started, whether for a man or a woman. He the Exalted and Majestic said: "And wipe your heads." Yes.
