Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. You are asking Shaykh Salih about the ruling on lightening the color of the eyebrow hair, and in this method, no part of the eyebrow hair is removed, but it is given a lighter color?

Answer:
It is obligatory to leave the eyebrow hair in its natural state, as long as there is no gray hair in it and no disfigurement, so it is left in its natural state, which is more beautiful than changing it to another color. Indeed, these are corrupt traditions in which some women have fallen. So what should be done is that the woman leaves her appearance and her natural creation in her hair and other things as it was, except for what the Lawgiver ordered to be removed or changed, such as the nails, the hair of the armpits, and the pubic hair. Likewise, the hair of the rest of the body, if she wants to remove it from her legs and arms, there is no harm in that. As for the hair of the face, and especially the hair of the eyebrows, it is not permissible to mess with it. Yes.
