seen when the hair is wet, so in the days when the hair is grown to practice this Sunnaĥ, properly comb the hair after having a bath/shower and check that the hair is not going below the shoulders.

A’lā-Ḥaḍrat Imām Aḥmad Razā Khān عَلَيْهِ رَحْمَةُ الرَّحْمٰن has stated, ‘Keeping hair below the shoulders [i.e. lower than the shoulder level] like women is Ḥarām for men.’ (Fatāwā Razawiyyaĥ, Vol. 21, p. 600)

Ṣadr-ush-Sharī’aĥ Maulānā Amjad ‘Alī رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has stated, ‘It is not permissible for a man to have long hair like women. Some people who call themselves Sufis (Ascetic) bear extremely long hair which runs over their chest like a snake and some of them even make their hair into ponytails or buns similar to women. This is all impermissible and against the Sharī’aĥ. (Baĥār-e Sharī’at, Vol. 16, p. 230)

It is Ḥarām for a woman to shave the head. (Fatāwā Razawiyyaĥ, Vol. 22,  p. 664)

It is impermissible and a sin for women to cut their hair short like Christian women of these times, and this act has been cursed. Even if the husband says to do this, the ruling still applies that the woman who does so will be sinful, because the order of the mother, father, husband, etc. will not be followed if it is contrary to the Sharī’aĥ. (Baĥār -e Sharī’at, Vol. 16, p. 231)
