The Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam remarked:\u00a0\u00a0 &#8220;Does he not find such a thing (oil etc.) by which he can gather \/ straighten his hair.&#8221; (Mishkat p.375)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In another hadith Saaiduna Abu Qatadah (RA) once asked The Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam: \u201cI have long hair, should I comb it?&#8221; The Prophet of Allah (SAW) replied, &#8220;Yes, and look after your hair\u201d. Hence Abu Qatadah (RA) used to sometimes apply oil twice a day (i.e. apply oil and comb it) because of the order of The Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam. (Mishkaat p. 384)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Saaiduna Anas Radiallahu Anhu reports that the Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam often rubbed oil on his head and also often combed his beard.\u00a0 He put a cloth over his head which became like an oil cloth due to the frequent use of oil.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 (Shamaail Tirmizi p.3)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Oiling the hair regularly is an effective way of stopping hair loss therefore it will be advisable to oil it before having a shower and then washing the hair with shampoo. There is not a specific dua one can recite to prevent hair loss however, it may be advisable to read Salatul Hajjah and pray to Allah for the removal of the illness.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Only Allah Knows Best<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Mohammed Tosir Miah<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Darul Ifta Birmingham<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Oiling the hair &nbsp; In the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful. &nbsp; Answer &nbsp; The Prophet of Allah (SAW) has&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[12],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3307"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3307"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3307\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3307"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3307"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/daruliftabirmingham.co.uk\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3307"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
