Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Khawlah from Riyadh, asks: Shaykh, what is the ruling in the Shari'ah, in your view, regarding a woman using artificial eyelashes, and that is for the purpose of beautifying herself for her husband?
Answer:
This is a form of deception and concealment, and it is not permissible. This also falls under the warning regarding the one who beautifies herself with what she has not been given, the one who boasts of what she has not been given, like one who wears two garments of falsehood, as mentioned in the hadith. So she should seek the permissible medical treatment, the treatment prescribed by the Shari'ah. As for her attaching hair to her head, or making artificial eyelashes, or making things that have no reality, this is a matter that is not permissible for her, yes.
