The Ruling on Removing Eyebrows by Threading, Plucking, or Trimming

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a transmitted question. She says in a question among a group of questions: “Trimming the eyebrows with a thread is forbidden, but is it permissible for a woman to trim her eyebrows with scissors or tweezers? Please inform us. May Allah reward you with good?”

Answer:
All of that is not permissible. It is not permissible to remove the hair of the eyebrows or remove any of it by any means, whether by shaving, plucking, trimming, or otherwise, because all of this falls under *na'm* (plucking the eyebrows), which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade and cursed the one who does it. Yes.
