Question:
I ask Allah for you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: If the hair on the head is long, does he wipe over all of it, or is it sufficient to wipe over the original roots of the hair?
Answer:
Yes, if he has braids that hang down his back, it is sufficient for him to wipe over the top of the head only, as for what hangs down and falls, he does not wipe over it. And women are the same; they wipe from the front to the back of the head, from the front to the back only. Yes.
