Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the early stages of my life, my hair is sparse and does not grow naturally. From childhood until now, it has not grown more than the hair of boys who do not let their hair grow long. Is it permissible for me to undergo a procedure, or as they call it, a hair transplant, so that my hair becomes like that of other girls my age? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
If it is medically possible, and if there is a treatment that causes hair to grow, or a medical procedure, then there is nothing wrong with it; because this is permissible treatment, and because remaining in this condition would be disfiguring for her. Therefore, if it can be done by what Allah the Exalted has made lawful, then there is nothing wrong with it. Praise be to Allah, may Allah reward you with good.
