Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman says: I have heard that a woman raising her hair on the front of her head and styling it so that it becomes like a dome or a crown, as adornment for her husband or her mahram relatives, falls under the hadith about the hump of a camel. Is this correct?

Answer:
Yes, this is correct. By Allah, there is no adornment in this; rather, it is disfigurement. By Allah, there is no adornment in it; it is only the adornment of Shaytan. So she should let her hair down and arrange it, making it into braids or locks. As for gathering it in a bundle on top of the head like a bundle of firewood, that is not proper, nor is it adornment. This is disfigurement. Yes.
