’Uthaimeen on Women Growing Long Nails
December 5, 2013 § Leave a comment
Shaikh ’Uthaimeen, may Allaah have mercy on him, said, “I warn some of those women whose evil deeds—leaving their nails to grow and making them long—has been made alluring to them by Shaitaan. [I warn them] because it goes against the fitrah [one’s natural disposition] and the time the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم laid down for his nation, because the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم set a time [limit for the trimming of] the nails, the pubic region and the armpits, and moustaches for men, of no more than forty days.”
