Is wiping over the front of the head sufficient?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The sister questioner says: When performing wudu', is it obligatory for a woman to wipe the entire head, or is it sufficient to wipe the forehead and the front of the head?

Answer:
No, no. The woman and the man wipe over the entire head, whether it is a man or a woman. This is done by placing his hands, wetted with water, on the front of his head, then passing them to the back of his head, and then returning them to the place where he started, whether he is a man or a woman, in accordance with the saying of Allah the Exalted: . Yes.
