Question

Muufti sahab,

Is it permissible to cut the hair and dye for beauty. As our beauty

only for our husband. Wear ladies pant, ladies shirt?

can we suck our(husband and wife)private parts only for enjoy.

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

Sister in Islam,

According to us, it is not permissible for a woman to cut her hair.[1]

However, it is permissible for a woman to dye her hair with all colors except for pure black.[2]

It is permissible for women to wear ladies’ pants and shirts.

With regards to your last question:

 

Shariah greatly emphasizes the traits of modesty and shame.

 

Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

 

حدثنا أبو مسعود عقبة قال قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إن مما أدرك الناس من كلام النبوة إذا لم تستحي فافعل ما شئت رواه البخاري

Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) says: ‘If you do not have shame, do as you wish’.

 

 

It is against the dictates of shame and modesty that the same limb of the body which recites the Qur’an and makes the Zikr of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) be used for such an act. The Fuqahaa (Jurists) have ruled that it is Makrooh Tahreemi (highly reprehensible) for one to do such an act.
