Changing the shape of the eyebrows and whitening them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, we ask: What is the ruling on changing the shape of the eyebrows, and what is the ruling on whitening them?
The Shaykh:
It is not permissible to mess with a woman’s eyebrows; I mean a woman.
The questioner:
To the back.
The Shaykh:
A man’s eyebrows, later. Yes.
The questioner:
By Allah, it is the worst thing.
The Shaykh:
I mean a woman, yes. It is not permissible for a woman to mess with her eyebrows; rather, she should leave them as Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) created them. They are beauty, beauty for her. But Satan has enticed women regarding their eyebrows, just as he has enticed many men regarding their beards; they shave them and trim them. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded them to be kept and honored. Satan wants them to oppose their Messenger in this. Yes.
