296 – Chapter: The prohibition of attaching hair, tattooing, and filing or gapping the teeth

Allah the Exalted says: “They invoke besides Him only female deities; in fact they invoke none but a defiant devil⦗2⦘ whom Allah has cursed. He said, ‘I will surely take from Your servants an appointed share, and I will surely mislead them, arouse false hopes in them, and command them so they will slit⦗3⦘ the ears of cattle, and I will command them so they will alter Allah’s creation.’” [Sūrat al-Nisāʾ 4:117-119]

1650 – Asmāʾ (may Allah be pleased with her) reported that a woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, “Messenger of Allah, my daughter was stricken with measles and her hair has fallen out. I have arranged her marriage; may I attach hair for her?” He replied, “Allah curses the woman who attaches hair and the one to whom hair is attached.” Agreed upon.

In another wording: “the one who attaches hair and the one who seeks to have it attached.”

Her phrase “fa-tamarraqa” is spelled with a rāʾ and means: it thinned out and fell. “Al-wāṣilah” is the woman who adds her own or someone else’s hair to other hair; “al-mawṣūlah” is the woman whose hair is thus extended; and “al-mustawṣilah” is the one who asks another to do that for her.

1651 – ʿĀʾishah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated a report to the same effect. Agreed upon.

1652 – Ḥumayd ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān related that he heard Muʿāwiya (may Allah be pleased with him) in the year he performed the ḥajj

(1) I add that al-Tirmidhi reached the same verdict, declaring the isnad confused; the full discussion is in Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Daifah, no. 678 –N–. (2) I.e., a defiant rebel who has left the obedience of Allah. (3) I.e., they split the animals’ ears and then pronounce riding such livestock unlawful.
