The Ruling on Cutting and Dyeing a Woman's Hair

The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on women cutting their hair, and dyeing their hair with colors other than black, when there is no gray hair?

The Shaykh:
It is not permissible to mess with the hair unless it is disfigured, meaning it has gray hair or discolored hair, in which case it is changed to remove the disfigurement and the color of the gray, but not with black. However, if the hair is beautiful and normal, and has no defect or disfigurement, it is not permissible to change it from its state. It remains as it is, because there is no need for this change. Otherwise, this would be changing the creation of Allah, which Satan commands the children of Adam to do. Yes.

The questioner:
We have received your response, Your Eminence, father. The female questioner asks: And is it possible?

The Shaykh:
It would be changing the creation of Allah from one aspect, and imitating the disbelieving women from another aspect. Yes.
