Question

Answer

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

As-salamu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullahi wa-barakatuh.

It is permissible for one to cut one’s unwanted hairs and nails before donning the Ihraam for Hajj.[1]

However, The Fuqahaa (Jurists) have mentioned that it is Mustahab for one doing Qurbani to abstain from cutting one’s nails and hair during the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
