Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I have heard from some people that it is not permissible for a person to cut his nails during the first ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah. Is what I heard correct?
Answer:
If he intends to offer a sacrifice, he must not cut his nails, hair, or skin until he has sacrificed after the month has begun. This is based on what is established in Sahih Muslim from Umm Salimah (may Allah be pleased with her), from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said:.
As for if he is not offering a sacrifice, he owes nothing; he may cut his nails during the ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah and at other times. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
