The prohibition of hair extensions

bukhari:5941al-Ḥumaydī > Sufyān > Hishām > Fāṭimah bt. al-Mundhir > Asmāʾ

A woman asked the Prophet ﷺ and said, “O Messenger of Allah, my daughter was afflicted with measles, and her hair fell out. I have married her off, so may I attach hair to it?” He said, "Allah has cursed the woman who attaches hair extensions and the one for whom they are attached."

البخاري:٥٩٤١حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ الْمُنْذِرِ تَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَسْمَاءَ قَالَتْ

سَأَلَتِ امْرَأَةٌ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ ابْنَتِي أَصَابَتْهَا الْحَصْبَةُ فَامَّرَقَ شَعَرُهَا، وَإِنِّي زَوَّجْتُهَا، أَفَأَصِلُ فِيهِ؟ فَقَالَ: «لَعَنَ اللَّهُ الْوَاصِلَةَ وَالْمَوْصُولَةَ».
