The Ruling on a Woman Shortening Her Hair

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a woman to shorten her hair? And what is the evidence?

Answer:
If it is long, there is nothing wrong with her taking from its ends; because the wives of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) took from its length for the sake of lice. And if it is not long, leaving it is better, because this is beauty for her.
