Ruling on applying honey and eggs to the hair for beautification
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a woman to apply honey and eggs to her hair for the purpose of beautification?
Answer:
As far as I know about this... she washes it with that, she beautifies herself, she puts on honey, just like that? I do not know about it: if it is for treatment, there is no harm; but if it involves degrading the blessing, playing with it, and extravagance, it is not permissible. However, if it is for treating the hair or treating the scalp, where there is something that requires honey or eggs, just as other things are done in the category of treatment; there is no harm.
Q: In some places, they say this is egg soap?
The Shaykh: Do you mean it is mixed in?
Q: Yes, it is mixed with it.
The Shaykh: It does no harm, just as one treats with dough, applying dough to a wound or applying something else to a wound when necessary, just as one also uses types of edible items for the need of medical treatment. So if it is for medical treatment or for beautifying the hair, such as: putting honey in his hair because it benefits the hair, or eggs that benefit the hair, if there is benefit in them, it is easy.
But if it is playing with the blessings, it is not permissible. However, if there is benefit for the hair or benefit for the scalp, the scalp of the head, by mixing it with some soap or mixing it with something else that brings benefit to the head; there is no harm.
