A woman combing her hair and sewing clothes after her husband's death


455

Q 2: Some people claim that a woman should not comb her hair or sew anything unless three days pass after her husband's death. Kindly give me your Fatwa (legal opinion issued by a qualified Muslim scholar) in this regard.


A: It is not Haram (prohibited) for a woman to comb her hair and she is permitted to sew any clothes she wants after the death of her husband. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
