What is the ruling on hair transplantation in the forehead area for a married woman?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is forbidden to implant hair for adornment and beauty if it is not in its natural place and site of growth, because it falls under the meaning of forbidden hair extensions and altering Allah's creation. However, implanting hair at the front of the head due to hair loss or baldness is permissible, as it falls under the category of treatment and remedy. This differs from a case where the hair implant extends beyond the front of the head and the natural hairline, as this constitutes forbidden mutilation and an alteration prohibited by Islamic law.
