Question:
Is lengthening the hair part of the Sunnah?
Answer:
Lengthening the hair—any hair. We have hair that is not permissible to lengthen, namely the hair of the pubic area and the armpits. Here we have hair that is not to be touched; it is forbidden to remove it, and that is the hair of the eyebrows and the beard. Here we have hair whose removal is recommended, namely the mustache; one trims the mustache and shaves it. And here we have hair whose leaving or shaving is permissible, namely the hair of the head. Yes, but if he leaves it, he should not leave it in a manner that imitates the disbelievers. Yes.
