The questioner : What is the ruling on growing long nails for women? Is that permissible?
The Shaykh : Growing long nails, whether for women or men, goes against the fitrah (the innate natural disposition) upon which Allah created people. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) set a limit for his Ummah (the Muslim community) regarding nails, the mustache, the pubic hair, and the armpits, stating that they should not be left for more than forty days. This is authentically reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family). Therefore, do not grow long nails, neither for women nor for men, but do not leave them for more than forty days. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you. From the questions of this questioner, she says.
