Ruling on a woman cutting her hair and adorning herself with henna
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Her final questions state: Is it permissible for a woman to cut her hair? And what is the ruling on henna?
Answer: Cutting the hair, if it is for the sake of lightening it, not for imitating disbelieving women, but merely for lightening it, there is nothing wrong with that. And there is nothing wrong with henna; it is part of a woman's adornment. So what is prescribed for her, and what is better for her, is that she use it so that she may distance herself from resembling the hands of men. Yes.
