Ruling on wiping over braids during ablution
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
She says: One of the sisters has long hair. She wraps it around her head so that it is like a cap, then secures it with special hair clips. Is it valid to wipe over it in this state during ablution?
Answer:
She must undo it so that she can wipe the head, which is the roots, from the beginning to the end. As for the ends of the hair, the tresses, she is not required to wipe them. However, she must remove what is on the crown so that she can wipe the top of the roots of the hair, from the front of the head to the end of the hair roots near the back of the head. As for the tresses that hang down below that, she is not required to wipe them during ablution. However, she is required to pass water over them in the full ritual bath for major ritual impurity and post-natal bleeding. As for ablution, it is sufficient to wipe the roots of the hair and remove this bundle on the head.
