Is it permissible to have hair gel on while praying?

:salams:

Question's in the title, can I wear gel during prayer? Or do wudhu with gel in my hair?

I mean I can remove it, but my hair is slightly long.. Not shoulder length (obviously) but about 2.75 - 3 inches long.. This is just an estimate but when I'm at uni.. I can't really wash the gel out otherwise my hair won't stay up?

I mean if I have to I will.. but what's the solution here?

Thanks!!

Assalamu alaikoum brother,

If the gel contain alcohol, it is definitely no even if you are not praying. Gel is not an obligation that has to be used. Only if it is for medical purpose but here also one should be careful. As per the advise of our Prophet Mohammad Sallalahu alaihi wassalam if you are doubtful about something stay away from it.

Water wont reach for wudhu purposes so I guess you should wash it off or perhaps change your hairstyle.

How would water not reach? I don't think gel is a coating that water can't go through.

Gel by its very nature is a coating. But if you think water can really go through some types then wudhu would be valid.

I would like to hear more answers about this issue, from ulama, just to make sure.
