High Buns and the Warning of Punishment in Jahannum

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: “Hadhrat Abu Hurairah (Radiyallahu Anhu) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: “There will be two groups (in my ummat) who will be punished in Jahannum. These two groups I have not yet seen (i.e. they will emerge after my demise). One group will carry whips with them resembling the tails of cattle, with which they will (oppressively) lash the people. The second group will be those women who will wear clothes yet they will still be naked (i.e. tight fitting or flimsy clothing), they will attract men to themselves, and they themselves will be inclined towards them, their heads will resemble the humps of the Bukhti camels (i.e. they will wear buns which will be high like camel humps). They will not enter Jannah nor smell its fragrance, despite its fragrance being able to be perceived from a great distance away.”

It is not permissible to wear high buns? I make a high bun when I’m sleeping because of the hair getting into my face. My hair is tied in a ponytail the rest of the day. Should I stopping making high buns at night?

Bismillaah

A: The bun could be tucked below the head into the neck.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
