Hair falling out from a person in ihram or from one who intends to slaughter the 'Id sacrifice while bathing or combing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The first question in this episode is from Misha al-Rashid from al-Qasim. In her first question, she asks: What should a woman in ihram do if a hair falls from her head against her will? And does the one who intends to sacrifice while she is in her home, meaning she has not gone for Hajj, have the right to comb her hair and take a bath? Knowing that her hair falls out during the bath without her intention? May Allah reward you with good and benefit you with your knowledge.

The Shaykh:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. As for what follows, the falling out of hair from a person in ihram or from one who intends to sacrifice for himself during the ten days, if it is without intention and without deliberate action, then it does not harm. What is forbidden is deliberately removing hair for the person in ihram, whether by shaving, cutting, or plucking. Likewise, for the one who intends to sacrifice for himself during the ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah, he does not deliberately remove hair. Yes.

The questioner:
May Allah reward you. In her other question, she says: If the pilgrim performs 'Umrah and then goes out to visit his relatives outside the Haram, is the farewell tawaf obligatory for him? And is there anything required of him regarding that?

The Shaykh:
Remaining from the first question is the ruling on bathing for the person in ihram and for the one who intends to sacrifice for himself during the ten days. Well, there is nothing wrong with bathing and cleaning. Praise be to Allah. And likewise, arranging the hair of the head, but gently so that nothing falls out of it. Yes.
