Wearing Hairs Extensions, Wigs And False Eyelashes
Assalam o Alaikum
I want ustad Ghamdi’s view about wearing hairs extensions, wigs and false eyelashes as many scholars said it is haram to use it as Prophet Muhammad Saww prohibited it.
Wearing wigs or hair extensions which consists of human hair (or pig hair) is prohibited in Islam by consensus. It is permissible in the Hanafi madhhab to wear non-human hair. However, because of the strong difference of opinion in other madhhabs about its unconditioned impermissibility, it may be better to avoid.
The Impermissibility of Wearing & Buying Human Hair
The Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said, “Allah curses the woman who joins her (or another’s) hair with someone else’s hair and the one who requests it and (Allah curses) the woman who tattoos herself (or another) and the one who requests it.” [Bukhari; Muslim; Abu Dawud; al-Tirmidhi; ibn Majah; Ahmad; Sunan Nasai; ibn Hajar, Fath al-Bari]
And also in one of the Hadith in which there is a bald girl and her mother requested to wear wig for her on her wedding day but Prophet Muhammad SAWW still refused it
Thank you
JazakAllah khayr

I recall a question was posed to Ghamidi sahab along the same lines and his answer was that these things are only prohibited if they are used to cheat someone. For example an old man wears a black wig in order to marry a younger woman without ever disclosing his age to her. In that case it would be morally wrong, hence prohibited.
