Question
Praise be to Allah.
It seems – and Allaah knows best –that what
is put on the hair or used to make the hair stick together, such as henna and the like, does not affect wudoo’, rather it is sufficient to wipe
over it.
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy
on him) said:
If a woman plasters her hair with henna or
something similar, she may wipe over it, there is no need remove the substance in question, because it was proven that the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to apply something to make his hair stick together when in ihraam.
See al-Sharh al-Mumti’ by Shaykh Ibn
‘Uthaymeen, 1/196
What is put on the head and makes the hair stick together becomes part of it, which indicates
that there is some lenience with regard to purification of the head.
And Allaah knows best.
