The Meaning of the Hadith {Mailat Mamilat} and the Images That Fall Under It

Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. A listener who identified herself by the letters H, A, and Alif says: If a woman cuts her hair from the front and parts it in a slanted part, does she fall under the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), "Mailat Mamilat"?

Answer:
Yes, this description applies to her if she parts her head in a manner other than the custom of Muslim women, which is in the middle of the head, and parts it in a way that imitates disbelieving women. In that case, she is among the "mailat" and "mamilat." Likewise, regarding this cutting that has occupied women: beauty lies in the preservation of a woman's hair and tresses and caring for them. Cutting is permissible out of necessity if she is unable to arrange it, and it is thick and long, making it difficult for her, or if she does not have the means to arrange it, or if she is elderly and it is a burden on her. For necessity, there is no harm in cutting it. However, cutting it for the sake of boasting, adornment, imitation, and resembling others is not permissible. Yes.
