The Ruling on Plucking Eyebrows for Men and Women

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Does plucking the eyebrows, which is shaving or thinning the hair of the eyebrows, fall under the prohibition for men, or is it specific to women?

Answer:
There is no doubt that it applies to both men and women. It is not permissible for men to alter the creation of Allah. This falls under altering the creation of Allah. Satan said, as mentioned by Allah, "And I will surely command them, so they will change the creation of Allah."
