The ruling on a woman shortening her hair after tawaf

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah reward you, when does a woman cut her hair? Is it when she finishes tawaf, or after sa'y? And how does she take from her hair?

Answer:
She does not cut her hair after tawaf because she has not completed the 'Umrah. She does not cut her hair except when she has finished sa'y. When she has finished sa'y, she cuts from the tips of her hair to the extent that it is manageable. If she wishes, she may cut it in the car or outside the sa'y area where men cannot see her. If she wishes, she may cut it in her home. The matter is broad in this regard. If she wishes, she may cut it on the road, because shaving and shortening do not have a specific place designated for them; they are permissible in any place.
