Is it lawful for men and women to have hair?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Whether the business of men and women hair is lawful or not?

Answer

(Fatwa: 730/731/N=1433)

All the human beings – whether male or female – are respectable and honourable with all their parts. Hence the business of human hair is not lawful in any way. It is unlawful and haram and the income earned thereby is also not halal. Almighty Allah says in the holy Quran:
وَلَقَدْ كَرَّمْنَا بَنِي آدَمَ الآية [الإسراء : 70]
And We bestowed dignity on the children of Adam.
و قال الحصكفي فى الدر المختار (مع الرد كتاب البيوع باب البيع الفاسد 7:244-245 ط زكريا ديوبند): كما بطل بيع ….. شعر الإنسان لكرامة الآدمي ولو كافرا ذكره المصنف وغيره في بحث شعر الخنزير اهـ
