Is Wudhu, Ghusl and Salaat valid with dreadlocks?

Question

Is Wudhu, Ghusl and Salaat valid with dreadlocks?

Answer

Dreadlocks are not permissible. This kuffaar hairstyle is haraam. It is incumbent to cut off the ugly locks. Although Wudhu, Ghusl and Salaat will be valid even with dreadlocks, it is sinful and the reward of the acts of ibaadat (worship) is destroyed.
