Shortening the Hair for the One Performing Tamattu' Who Wants to Sacrifice
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I have a question, may you live long. I am, if Allah wills, the head of my family, and I want to perform the sacrifice and I want to leave the hair long, and this is during the ten days. But I want to perform Hajj as a tamattu' pilgrim, O Shaykh. How do I shorten my hair while I am holding onto the hair and nails?
The Shaykh:
This does not apply; the rites of pilgrimage are not subject to the prohibition. So you shorten your hair for the sake of the rites of pilgrimage; there is no harm in that.
The questioner:
I mean, there is no harm. I perform 'Umrah as a tamattu' pilgrim and then I shorten my hair.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah grant him success in what He loves and is pleased with. Peace be upon you.
The presenter:
Peace be upon you.
