Woman trimming her hair when making many umrahs
Question
1. A woman who is going to do many umrahs, if her hair goes short due to trimming many times, does she still have to trim the hair?
2. Is there a limit until which length the woman stops cutting the hair, what should she do if it reaches a point where it can no longer be cut?
Answer
She rather make more tawaafs and leave out doing more umrahs.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
