Ruling on Cutting the Hair of a Newborn Girl
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it forbidden to cut the hair of a newborn girl, or is it permissible?
Answer:
The hair of a newborn girl is not cut, nor is it shaved; that is for the boy. The young boy is shaved on the seventh day, but the girl is not; she is not shaved, except if it is for medicine. If she has an illness on her head and shaving is for the medicine, then there is no harm.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
