#118: Advice to the Muslim who wants to Lock her Hair.
” As Salam Alaykum warahmotullah wabaarakaatuh. Please as a Muslim sister can I lock my hair I mean dread please reply its urgent”_
*ANSWER*
Wa alaykum Salām Warahmatullāh Wabarakātuh
Alhamdulillāh.
Dear Sister, we advise you not to lock your hairs but to leave it as natural as it has come. Instead, apply creams that stimulate its growth and enrich it.
If you are married, your husband will prefer that. If you are not, you will look more matured, respected and honoured among your peers with that. It also protects your inclination from tilting towards the like of what the non-Muslims do.
