Advice to Women Regarding the Prevalent Haircuts

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh! We have found many haircuts in our time among some women. What is your advice and guidance for the sisters (may Allah preserve you)?

Answer:
It is obligatory for them to be mindful of that, and to leave the heads as they are; because the hair is the beauty of the woman. The hair is the beauty of the woman. But if it is very long and it is difficult for her, it tires her, and she wishes to take the ends of it so that the fatigue is lightened for her; then there is no harm. As for cutting the front, or some of it, leaving some of it to imitate the men, or the disbelievers, then it is not permissible.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you and bless you.
