You are asking about a woman winding some of her hair around some of the rest; does this affect the wudu', and is it included in the prohibition?

The questioner:
You are asking about a woman winding her hair in a specific, particular way. Does winding the hair around itself affect the wudu', or is it included in the prohibition from which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) warned, describing some of those who do it as having heads like the humps of camels?
The Shaykh:
If she winds it and places it on top of her head, this falls within the meaning of the hadith, and Allah knows best. [They are] like the humps of camels, so it is as if she has two heads, as if she has two heads: the natural head, and the shape of the head formed by the mass of hair on the side or behind it, such that it appears to be another head. The best and most appropriate for a woman is to comb her hair and make it into braids on the sides of her head; this is the most appropriate and fitting, and this is what the women of the Muslims used to do. As for the issue of wiping the head, there is no harm in a woman wiping over her head while it is braided. As for this winding, I fear that it prevents the wiping from reaching the rest of the head, so the wiping would only be on some of the hair and not the rest. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. If it affects the wudu', she must leave this state, Shaykh Salih?
The Shaykh:
If it affects the wudu', she must do so. Also, she should arrange her hair as the women of the Muslims did, by placing it on the sides and braiding it into braids, or letting it hang from the sides like tresses, either braids or tresses; this is the known practice. Yes.
