Im relly confused some immams say that women ladies are not alowed to cut there hair short it shoud be long up to there belly button so when you die they put to ponny tals plated at the front? are you allowed to cut your hair in the front?

this is a scholarly opinion - and the scholars differ over this (and other) issues so to understand it you’d have to go to the source and find out what evidence they are basing this on

I believed that it was sin to cut hair for a woman. Anyhow thanks for useful post.

It was narrated in Saheeh Muslim that Abu Salamah ibn ‘Abd al-Rahmaan said: “The wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to cut their hair until it came just below their ears.” (al-Hayd, 320)

We do not know anything (to disallow) cutting women’s hair. What is forbidden is shaving it. You should not shave your hair but you may cut it and reduce its length or volume; we know of nothing wrong with that. But that should be done in a proper manner which will please you and your husband. You should come to some agreement with him on a kind of haircut that does not resemble kaafir women, because if you leave it long, it will be a lot of trouble to wash it and comb it. So if the hair is very long or thick, and the woman cuts it to reduce its length or volume, that doesn’t matter. Cutting some of it will make it more beautiful, which will please both the woman and her husband. So we do not know of any reason to disallow that. But shaving it altogether is not permissible, except in the case of sickness. And Allaah is the Source of strength.

See Fataawa al-Mar’ah al-Muslimah, part 2, p. 515

It is not permissible for a woman to cut her hair short in the back and leave the sides longer, because this involves disfiguring and fooling about with her hair which is part of her beauty, and it also involves imitating the kaafir women.

But it is said that that the womens hair is meant to be one length only and that it should be down to your waist cause in case you dont have cloths you can hide urselv with your hair

yes also your has to be long so that when you die they cover your neck with your, not exactly sure how they are meant to do it though

It is incumbent upon a woman that cuts her hair to seek forgiveness although her husband commands her to do so, because there is no obedience to the creation in an act that violates the laws of the creator

At the time of Umrah/Hajj they are obviously allowed to…

They also use the hadeeth (paraphrased) in which it states that Aaisha (RA) hair was just below her shoulders, the reason being she would perform Hajj every year..

If anyone could shed light on the authenticity of the above hadeeth would appreciate it.

I have a question, i’m muslim and i’m 12, am i allowed to shave my legs, pluck eyebrows, or shave my underarms?

The woman is made for having long hair is so much more beautiful! Women’s freedom but not so anyway!

hello

don’t know !

I guess they should be allowed to..

I don’t think it should matter

What if their hair falls out?

Kudos for shedding light on a rather debatable topic.!

Great stuff.. Thank you for shedding light on a tough topic.!

Wow..Strong viewpoint on a rather touchy subject.!

Great point. A conservative society should wake up to the points of reality in a heavily competitive world that we live in now.

Great post. Shed light on a heavily controversial topic.

this is incredible stuff...i personally didnt know that muslim women are allowed to cut their hair short. amazing post.

I’m a Muslim, and as far as my knowledge is concerened, Muslim women are not at all allowed to keep their hair shorter than their shoulders. Plus they’re not allowed to do any hair style that resembles males’ styling in any way.

I fail to see what is wrong with cutting your hair. There are far worse things going on in the world to worry about trivial stuff like this.

Thanks for sharing valuable Post. May Allah Bless You.

Knowing each others customs and beliefs is so critical.  Thank you for taking the time to share.  And thank you for clearing up steortypes.

Strong opinion there..This sets up everything brilliantly.

great post. thanks for sharing it with us.

Strong article explained in a brilliant subtle way..Kudos for sharing this out.

hey, it is new for me to hear that muslim women are allowed to cut their hair. Previously I use to think that cutting there hair in muslims is a sin.

Anyhow thanks for useful post.

Thanks a lot for the clear presentations. I was also worried about the issue.

Well this is not allowed at all. But i feel this must be the decision of the person only, no matter where they live or what religion they are from. Travel around the world and see the changing world.

Although glad is not quite the right word… let me just say I needed this after the incessant chatter in the media, and am grateful to you for articulating something many of us are feeling - even from distant shores.

Thanks for the clarification. I was a bit confused about the subject.

I think that the rights is equal to women. They can use short hair at all.

I have noticed many people had the same confusions in their mind. Thanks for the clear answer and the references.

Thanks for sharing, very interesting and usefull post !

Hi,
Glad to stumble your article...If you have been blessed with fairly straight hair, then you are lucky and the envy of many women (myself included). Thick hair that is mostly straight, with maybe a slight wave is usually the easiest hair to style. Your natural wave loves to be curled and styled, and yet is easy to straighten and looks fabulous worn straight…

Are Muslim women allowed to remove their hair completely. Not just cutting but by various hair removal methods like the ones here:
http://www.permanent-hair-removal-tips.com

If hair cutting is not allowed, surely this is?

i don’t think they are allowed.

All praises be to Allaah, Lord and Sustainer of the worlds, and may the peace and blessings of Allaah be upon our Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and upon his family and companions

I am sure think they are not allowed.

Hi. Great post. Really interesting. Thanks for sharing this.

Islam is not a religion which does not instruct followers to do things that are illogical. Muslims have their logic to support the fact that Muslim women wear hijab. Once a woman is wearing hijab, cutting her hair short should not offend anyone in any way. It is logical.

Sorry but I  don’t really agree with you

very nice article, thanks for sharing.

He,
I was at the hair stylists a while ago and this Muslim woman and her daughter came in. Her daughter wasn’t allowed to take her scarf off in the main salon so they had to take her into the other room, I’m not sure what they did to her hair but I caught a glimpse as they were about to leave right before she put her scarf back on, and it was still long. They both seemed pleased though. Sorry if this is rude or anything, it just got me super wondering about rules regarding Muslim women and their hair.
Wrinkle Reduction

Hi,
My mother, age 89, believes that women shouldn’t cut their hair because the Bible says so. Her hair is very thin and fine and looks terrible being long and uncontrollable. If she had it cut short it would look so much better.
