Question:
Audhu billahi mina shaytan ir Rajeem Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim,
Alhamdulillahi Rabbil alamiin wa salatu wa salaamu ala ashrafil anbiya’i wal mursalin Sayidina Muhammad wa ‘ala ahlihi wa sahbihi ajma’iin
Asalaamwale kum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu,
Our daughter is now 10 1/2 months old and always had thick hair, she was also born with a full head of hair. We became concerned as many people would always comment about her hair as it is unusual for someone at this age to have so much hair. Also with the amount of hair she looks older than what she really is.
To protect her from nazar and envy we are covering her head with either a small hijab or hat. Would Mawlana Shaykh Hisham agree that this is ok to do as she is so young and we live in the UK?
Please remember in your in duas and forgive our shortcomings insha’Allah.
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
Keep her hair covered – she is a special girl.
Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani
