Question

Can we remove hair and nails during Haidh period? We have learnt from young that we must not remove it during Haydh, only after we are done we can remove it.

Answer

It is permissible for a woman to get rid of unwanted hair and clip her nails during Haidh (menstruation) and Nifaas (Post-Natal bleeding). (Hindiyyah 5/357-358)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
