| Q.) Can a person use soap or shaving cream to shave the hair after
Umrah? |
A.) A person in Ihram, Hajj or Umrah will come out of Ihram only after
shaving at least one quarter of the hair of the head. Therefore, anything contrary to
Ihram will not be permissible before this. This includes shaving the hair using soap or
cream, etc which have a fragrance. (Aap ke Masaail aur unka Hal; Ml. Yusuf Ludhiyanwi
vol.4 pg.143; Maktab Bayyinat).
And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.
