The Ruling on Cutting Hair from the Front and Parting It to One Side
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some women cut their hair from the front with a light cut, but it is slanted to one side. What is the ruling on a slanted parting?
Answer:
I advise everyone not to cut it, but rather to honor her head and preserve it, because it is part of her beauty. She should not cut it, neither from the front nor the back. The parting may be on the temples if it is not... But if it is very long and she is burdened by the long ends, there is no harm in taking some of the ends of the long hair, as it is reported that the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took what had grown long from it after his death (peace and blessings be upon him), if there was length and burden. As for taking from the front or the back, or imitating men, all of this is not correct and is not permissible.
