Question:
Salaam alaykum
I have lost most of my hair through the years I’m 28 years old now. I have recently visited a clinic where they deal with hair extension is it permissible to have these? I worry nobody will marry me because of my almost bolding head. Duah please.
Answer:
Wa `alaykum salam,
1. The Hanafis consider it permissible as related by Abu Yusuf
2. The Malikis consider it forbidden.
3. The Shafi’is allow it but only for a woman’s husband.
4. The Hanbalis maintain the opinion similar to the Mailikis. Some of their scholars consider it disliked rather than forbidden.
