“So Asake na Muslim???”

sheywealth_:

“Praying for him is not a sin but I see no reason holding his head all fe Islamically it's not really a thing but not a sin though ... search on some people that know more about
Islam than I do's page .. a guy plaiting hair isn't a sin it must not look like a girls own, water should be able to touch and it should be something you can loose frequently but I doubt you can loose dread frequently... so I guess sister dread would have been the best in a male design ... this is justwhat teases her on I don't know how true it is o .. na mv result be that sha.”
