The ruling on shaving the Head or cutting the Hair after the second stage of removing the Ihram

Question :

Is it obligatory to shave the head or cut the hair for the major removal of Ihram after shaving it or cutting the hair for the lesser removal of Ihram, which is after completing the stoning of the pillars?

Answer:

It is not obligatory nor is it recommended to shave the head or cut the hair after the major removal of Ihram after shaving the head or cutting its hair for the lesser removal of Ihram, which is after completing the stoning of the pillars. This is because it is a rite of Hajj and therefore, it is an act of worship. And acts of worship are based upon strict legislation from the texts. It is not confirmed from the Prophet that he shaved his head or cut his hair after the major removal of Ihram. Rather he did that for the lesser removal of Ihram only. And it is confirmed from him that he said:
"Take your Hajj rites from me."
