    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 1996/1587/D=1430)

     

    They are not proved from Shariyah. They belong to supersutions and mistakes of people. However, it is proved by some hadith that whoever cuts nails on Friday Almighty Allah not only keeps him safe from calamity and misfortune till next Friday but three more days i.e. upto ten days as well. Cutting nails with teeth is said to be the cause of leprosy.
