Mentioning the ruling on parting the hair on the side.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : It remains to be asked: What is your opinion regarding those who part their heads on the side? There are people who part it on the side like this. Is this contrary to the Sunnah or not? The answer is that there is no doubt that it is contrary to the Sunnah. The parting should be in the middle. However, the question remains: does this fall under the warning in which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Muwatta Malik 48:8 And some scholars included this slanted hairstyle in that warning, stating that it is forbidden for women and not permissible. Similarly, regarding men, we say that this is also contrary to the Sunnah, so a person should not do it. We are currently seeing men part their hair on one side, and there is no doubt that this is contrary to the Sunnah. Whoever wishes to part their hair should part it as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did.
As for when the hair does not allow for parting, meaning it is not long, it is abundant but not long, then there is no need for parting. That is, if one leaves it as it is, as al-Hafiz (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned, that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) sometimes did not part his hair when it was short. So there is no harm in that. It is well known that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) shaved his head during Hajj, and as we know, hair grows bit by bit, and it is not possible to part it from the moment it grows while it is still small. So if the hair does not allow for parting, it is left as it is. And if it allows for parting, then the Sunnah is to part it. And Allah knows best.
