Is there a Hadith stating that a woman's hair will cover her on the Day of Resurrection, and is it forbidden to cut it, even for adornment within the home?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no authentic () or weak (da‘if) from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that conveys this meaning. It is permissible for a woman to cut her hair as long as it does not involve imitating disbelieving women or immoral women.
