Commentary
Shaving head or cutting hair short during Ihram is forbidden.
If one is compelled to violate any of the restriction of Ihram, he has to pay the compensation.
The compensation is slaughtering a sheep, if it is not possible, then fasting three days, or feeding six needy people; a measure of half Sā' of foodstuff is given to each one.
