The ruling on naming and shaving on the seventh day and frequent combing
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Since his birth?
The Shaykh:
And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would shave the head of every boy once and name him on the day of naming, which is the seventh day. If it is done on the first day or after that, there is no harm, but the seventh day is better.
The questioner:
And Allah, what is broken is the prohibition regarding frequent breaking.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
I say: What is the prohibition regarding frequent combing of the head with a comb?
The Shaykh:
He did not order it to be done every day.
