Question

Is it permitted for a muhrim to cut/shave the hair of another muhrim in order to come out of Ihraam?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

If a person in the state of Ihraam has completed all the fundamentals required and is only left with shaving/trimming the hair in order to exit the state of Ihraam, then he/she is permitted to shave/trim the hair of another muhrim also intending to exit the state of Ihraam.[1]
