Ruling on Wearing a Hairpiece

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Hello, yes. Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : And upon you be peace.

The questioner : Shaykh, yes, how are you?

The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, we are well.

The questioner : Please, I have a question, but I am asking about a wig that looks like human hair. Is it permissible to wear it, or is it considered a form of deception?

The Shaykh : No, you may not wear it.

The questioner : It is not permissible; it is forbidden.

The Shaykh : It is forbidden. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who joins hair and the one who has her hair joined.

The questioner : Yes, it is exactly like human hair. Yes, it is not permissible. Okay, thank you.

The Shaykh : May Allah welcome you.
