Keeping the Newborn's Hair and the Child's Tooth After It Falls Out
What is the ruling on keeping the newborn's hair after it is shaved for the first time, as well as keeping the tooth that falls out from the child at the age of six?
Answer
I say, and with God's guidance: there is no benefit in keeping hair and teeth, and we must get rid of them; because after shaving and extraction, they become impurities, and God knows best.
