Question:
This is another question. It asks: What is the ruling on cutting a child's hair to beautify and adorn him?
Answer:
If he cuts it all, there is no harm, or if he shaves it all, there is no harm. But cutting part of it or shaving part of it is not permissible. Rather, he should either shave it all or cut it all. Yes. Now, Allah sent down the hadith: "Let it all be cut, or let it all be left." So do not mix them. That is, he says: "Do not answer all of them." It includes the sideburns. It comes out all at once. If he cuts it all, it is like this. In the pardon, may Allah pardon you.
