Women shortening hair due to Illness.
Salaam Alaykum. If a married sister who has lost hair after pregnancy and also because of a medical condition, is forced to keep her hair very short, can it be halal? If she does not keep it extremely short, all her hair may fall out. She is not cutting hair short for the purpose of imitating a man. She is doing it to preserve her remaining hair and to look neat and tidy. The woman wears hijab and only shows her head to her husband and children. Her husband still finds her attracti ve and thinks she looks feminine. JazakAllahu Khayran.
