Cutting the hair on the front of the face for a woman
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a woman to cut the hair on the front of her face for the purpose of beautification?
Answer:
If the cutting is for beautification and not for the style where the hair is braided, they may cut from all the hair, all the hair on the head, to lighten it. However, leaving it is better; because it is beauty. Leaving the hair to grow long is more beautiful for a woman. But if it becomes very long and burdensome for her, there is no harm. Just as the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cut from his hair after his death, lightening it and not making it too heavy.

May Allah reward you,
