Ruling on Removing the Sixth Finger

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says that he suffers from having a sixth finger on his left hand, which causes him great embarrassment in front of people. He asks: Is it permissible for me to remove it, knowing that it is for the purpose of beautifying my hand? Please advise us, may Allah reward you.

Answer:
Yes, if he is in pain from it, or if it disfigures his appearance, and there is a treatment for it, and the doctors have determined that removing it will not cause harm and that it is possible to remove it, then there is no harm in him removing it.
