The ruling on shortening the hair from part of the head during 'Umrah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is Shaykh Salih's view on one who shortens only part of his head for 'Umrah?
Answer:
It is obligatory to cover the entire head; shortening only part of the head is not sufficient. [The verse states:] "Shaving your heads or shortening them." Thus, shortening was made an alternative to shaving. Since shaving covers the entire head, one does not shave part of his head and leave the rest; likewise, he does not shorten part of his head and leave the other part. Yes.
