Question

I want to know if the use of hair relaxer is allowed in Islam. Most responses I have seen are confusing and I don't want to make a mistake.

Answer

If it does not trim the hair it is permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
