Nephissa Posted May 13, 2005 when i lived in somalia i learned about the fact that women in past generations didn't cover thier hair until marriage, but did you know that some nomads (men) didn't cut thier hair until marraige. what do u think and if you know where please tell me. What are you asking? I'm little bit confused here. Are you asking where men cut their hair? Welcome to SOL hibaq. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miriam1 Posted May 13, 2005 Salam I am not sure about the men not cutting thier hair until marraige.But I know that, when i began wearing the hijab, I was told repeatdly that there was no need for it until I was married. This was from some women in my family. And times even told that it would hurt my marriage prospects. MOst annoying line.."why? ur so young," u would think i registered to live in a reiterment home. The reason behind, dont know, but have heard (unreliable sources) that the hijab (here covering of ur hair, chest) was'nt widely expected of unmarried girls in Somalia back in the day.
