Ruling on a woman tilting her hair to adorn herself

Question:
One of the female listeners asks the Shaykh, may Allah preserve him, saying: What is the ruling on a girl arranging her hair in a tilted style for beautification? Is that permissible? And what is the ruling on what they call the high bun at home and in the presence of mahrams? Does this act fall under the words of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when he described the women among the categories he had not seen, who are the "tilting and causing to tilt," with their heads like the tilted humps of camels?

Answer:
In my knowledge, the best is for the parting to be in the middle of the head, aligned with the nose, not tilted this way or that way. As for what came in the hadith, the intended meaning is tilting away from the truth. There are two categories of the people of the Fire in the authentic hadith. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This authentic hadith contains a warning against wronging people without right. Therefore, he criticized those who have whips in their hands with which they strike people, meaning: without right. Whether they are police or others, there must be evidence requiring the striking of people, by the ruling of the Shari'ah judge, or by the command of the one in authority. Striking people without right is among the greatest injustices that Allah has forbidden. Therefore, it is not permissible to strike people except with evidence, by the ruling of a judge, or by the one in authority who sees the benefit for the Muslims, because the one being struck has done what necessitates it.
As for women, it is obligatory for them also to cover themselves, and to be clothed in a covering that conceals. The covering in which the 'awrah is exposed due to its thinness or its shortness is nakedness; it is not a covering in reality. For this reason, he said: Meaning: They have the name of being clothed, but it is a covering that does not conceal, either due to its thinness or its shortness. This is not permissible; rather, it is an abomination. For this reason, he threatened them with the Fire. And likewise: "tilting and causing to tilt" means: tilting away from the truth and modesty toward lewdness and corruption.
And likewise, "causing to tilt" means: they cause other women to tilt toward falsehood and evil. So they are tilting in themselves away from the truth, and causing others to tilt toward falsehood. For this reason, they deserved the Fire and the bad outcome. As for his saying: This is a sign upon them. Some of the scholars of knowledge said: Its meaning is that they enlarge their heads, making wraps on them that make them larger. This is one of their signs.
As for the bun, it does not appear to be what is intended by this hadith; because it does not involve enlarging the head. It is small, like a little hair placed in the middle of the head, or at the back of the head. But leaving the braids hanging down and exposed is more appropriate, better, and further from doubt. Leaving her head, meaning braided on her back, or some of it on her back and some on her sides, is more appropriate. She has braids and the two side braids, and the comb is from behind. This is better, more cautious, and also more beautiful. As for gathering it on the head, or at the back of the head, it is feared that it may be of this category, even if it is not apparent, meaning it does not have anything resembling the humps of camels, but is less than that. But leaving it, and letting it hang down in the old custom, on the back and on the sides, meaning making the braids hang on her back and on the sides of her head, this is the most appropriate and the furthest from doubt. Yes.
