Is a woman's salaat valid if 1 strand of hair is showing?
Question
I've met many women who say that if 1 strand of hair is showing a woman's salaat is invalid. Is this true? If so, can you please explain why. Thank you.
Answer
A strand of hair left open will not invalidate the Salaat. However, a female should ensure that every strand of hair is covered before commencing her Salaat.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
