Ruling on a woman raising her hair from the back

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: Is it permissible for a woman to raise her hair from the back so that it is visible, which is what she calls the "ka'ka'ah"?

The Shaykh:
No, this is like what came in the hadith:
Like the hump of a tilted baktكأسنمة البخت المائلة
The "bakt" is the camel that has two humps, from the camels of the East, from the camels of the East. It has two humps. So if she gathers her hair from the back, it becomes like two heads: one from the gathered hair and one the actual head. This is how the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) described them. They will not enter Paradise and will not smell its scent. Their heads are
the women who would be dressed but appear to be naked, who would be inclined (to evil) and make their husbands incline towards it. Their heads would be like the humps of the bukht camel inclined to one side. They will not enter Paradise and they would not smell its odourنساء كاسيات عاريات مائلات مميلات رؤوسهن كاسنمه البخت المائله لا يدخلن الجنه ولا يجدن ريحها
Sahih Muslim 2128
We ask Allah for well-being. Yes.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
The woman leaves her hair in braids and does not let it hang loose. On the sides, it hangs down and does not have volume. Yes.
