Question:<\/strong><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Any good write-up about cutting\/length of women\u2019s hair<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/strong><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/strong><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The general ruling in classical Hanafi Fiqh is that it is impermissible for women to cut their hair. This stance is affirmed by many scholars from the Indian Subcontinent and some scholars from the Arab world have conditionally permitted it.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A hadith states: \u201cThe Messenger of Allah (saw) forbade women from cutting their hair.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is the stance mentioned by many classical scholars of the Hanafi Madhhab.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Two primary reasons for the impermissibility are:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 Imitation of Non-Muslims (Kuffar):<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In a hadith recorded by Imam Abu Dawud, the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: \u201cWhosoever imitates a group is amongst them.\u201d Imitating the hairstyles of non-Muslim women, such as flicks, perms, fringes, etc., is impermissible.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 Imitation of Men:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Messenger of Allah (saw) cursed those men who imitate women and those women who imitate men. Cutting hair in a way that resembles the hair of men is prohibited.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Due to these reasons, jurists generally prohibit women from cutting their hair. The resemblance to non-Muslim hairstyles and the imitation of men are both seen as significant issues.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However, if a woman trims her hair slightly in a way that avoids these two concerns, it may be permissible. This permissibility is based on two conditions:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 No Imitation of Non-Muslim Women:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hairstyles prevalent among non-Muslim women should be avoided.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cutting hair from the front (e.g., bangs) is impermissible.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. No Imitation of Men:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hair should not be cut in a way that resembles men’s hairstyles.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Trimming the hair from the lower end slightly to even out the length is permissible.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In conclusion, while the general ruling is that it is not permissible for women to cut their hair, slight trimming that does not imitate non-Muslim women or men may be allowed.<\/span><\/p>\n
