Dress & Attire

Q: What is the ruling on women wearing high heels?

Q: I would like to know detailed rulings on Pubic Hair and Hair under Armpits.

1. Is there any time limit like 40 days? Is that Fard, Wajid or Sunnah?
2. Is it true that one's supplication will get no answer if those hairs are not removed within 40 days?
3. Can we use Hair Removing Cream or Lotion instead of Scissors, Razor or some other sharp things since they are risky in handling?
4. Actual boundaries of Pubic/Under Armpit Hair to be removed?
5. Hair around the Anus?

Q: I would like to know the rulings regarding disposal of hair of head, pubic hair and hair under armpits, finger nails. What should we do with them once cut and removed? Should we bury them or can throw away anywhere, like in the garbage?

Q: Could you also inform me where does the beard starts from? I often face this dilemma when cutting my hair (head)?

Q: What is the Sunnah of cutting the hair of the head?

Q: Is it permissible to shave the hair in the upper thighs (close to the private parts) and the hair in the rear (buttock)?

Q: Can women keep their hair 2 lengths? They call it layering. According to what I heard from one Aalim is that Nabi (s.a.w) prohibited from qaz (shaving the sides and keeping the hair big on the top), but to have a small difference is ok. For example to cut 4 on the top and 3 at the bottom. So my 2nd question is that is the fatwa that we generally learn from our ulema regarding males is on a precautionary/taqwa basis?

Q: I was told that covering up satr at all times is farz e daimi. Please let me know the ruling when 1.) alone 2.) in front of spouse 3.) in front of other mahrams. Also what will be ruling for women for the same question. If I’m alone in my own house where there is no risk of any non mahrams entering, can I wear clothes that slightly show my satr like shorts or when my pants are below button will I be sinful?

Q: Is it permissible to wear a black thobe as it has been mentioned (not by a scholar) that we should not wear black, because the Shias wear black?

Q: I have a thobe that is just above my ankles when walking normally. However when I bend down or go in to ruku, the thobe covers my ankles. Is it permissible to wear such a thobe?
