Q: A Muslim magazine stated that women should not wear their hair in a bun as it resembles a camel’s hump. Is this true?
A: A normal bun does not resemble the camel's hump, and this is quite clear through observation. A bun does not sit high on the head. Yes, if the hair is done up in such a manner that it does resemble a camel's hump then this is haraam because the Messenger of Allah r cursed women who adopt this appearance.
