Question:
Does hair oil prevent the validity of wudu?
Answer:
Applying oil or other types of oils to the hair does not prevent wiping it during wudu, nor washing it for janabah, menstruation, or post-natal bleeding. This is based on what is established from Umm Salim (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: “O Messenger of Allah, I tie my hair tightly. Should I untie it for the washing of janabah and menstruation?” He said:Mishkat al-Masabih 438 It was narrated by Muslim in his Sahih, and there are other proofs regarding this.
