Is it permissible to add extensions to a fiancée's black hair that does not grow long, so that it becomes long as the fiancé is accustomed to, and her femininity and beauty increase, without displeasing Allah?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is not permissible for a Muslim woman to attach other hair to her hair, and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade that, and cursed the one who attaches hair (al-wasilah) and the one who has it attached (al-mustawsilah). Hair extensions are forbidden whether with the husband's consent or at his request. The appropriate course of action is to treat the original hair with a specialized doctor.
