Shortening the Hair by Shaving or Cutting in 'Umrah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is it permissible to take some of the hair with scissors after finishing the 'Umrah, or is it necessary to remove the hair completely? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
In the 'Umrah or Hajj, we are given a choice between shaving or shortening the hair, and shaving is better. Shortening is done by cutting, cutting the hair from all of the hair; this is the shortening. [It is] "Shave your heads or cut them short," with shaving mentioned first as being better. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed for those who shaved three times, and for those who shortened their hair once. He narrated to us.
