Question:

 

Is it true that a woman should not comb her hair every day?

 

 

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Answer:

 

Islam promotes neatness and tidiness at all times. One should always stay in a state of tidiness. The Prophet Muhammad SAW in many prophetic narrations encouraged us to keep our hair neat and tidy. However, scholars have said a few days should be missed in between if there is no necessity. If there is a need to comb the hair every day, then one should do so. The purpose of not combing the hair every day is to not waste time and to avoid a person becoming vain.
