Should I Skip Halaq and Cut My Hair Regularly?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I am living in Saudi Arabia and used to go for Umrah quite often. If we do Umrah 3-4 times in a year; (1) It is permissible not to do halaq but a regular hair cutting? (2) If not done halaq as in the past, what are the consequences of living with wife? (3) What should be done before going for next Umrah if last Umrah was not done properly?

Answer

(Fatwa: 357/261/D=1434)

(1) If the hair is longer than one finger tip then it is correct to cut it equal to one finger tip. But if the hair is shorter than one finger tip then it is necessary to shave it. This is necessary after each Umrah.
(2) It is haram. Dam (slaughtering of animal) shall be wajib.
(3) Why it was not valid, write the complete detail.

Random Q&A

About 2 years ago I had very severe problems with doubts in taharah and salat. AlhamduLillah, these times are far away, and I feel myself much more comfortable. But unfortunately now I suffer from some new doubts which appeared recently. The first problem is regarding materials which doesn’t penetrate water. Before wudhu I’m in doubt whether there are some of them on my heels and near nails. For example, if I have few yarns stuck to my heels, I don’t know whether they are synthetic ones (which don’t penetrate water) or not. Because there are just a few yarns, I can’t advocate whether they penetrate water or not. Also sometimes I find hair stuck to my nails or heels, and again I’m in doubt whether it penetrates water or not. Also if I have some dirt, I’m also in doubt whether it contains some small amount of water-not-penetrating materials. So, my wudhu becomes quite a long procedure, where I try to look at my heels and nails thoroughly trying to remove all the dirt, yarns, stuck pieces of hair. The second problem is in washing my face. I know that we can’t wash one limb with water which was used for washing another limb. So the doubt is as follows: if washing the face my palms will touch hair, I start to think, that on my hands there is water which was used washing my hair, not the face, so I wash my hands, and continue washing the face with new water. The other problem is that I don’t know what part of eyes should I wash – I understand that we don’t need to wash eyes themselves, but what’s about the red area which is near roots of eyelashes (above, under, right and left to eyes)?
