Question:
If the head of a person in ihram is gashed and he needs to have the wound sutured, it is sometimes obligatory for him to shave part of his head. Is a sacrificial animal required of him?

Answer:
No. If he gets a cupping treatment and this necessitates removing hair, there is no harm in removing it, because he did not do this for the sake of luxury.
