Shaving the Hair of a Newborn Girl

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it part of the Sunnah to shave the hair of a newborn girl?

Answer:
No, this is forbidden. Only the head of a male child is shaved; as for the girl, her hair is not shaved. Yes.
