The ruling on a woman shaving her eyebrows for the niqab

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, sincerely, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: If a woman is compelled to wear the niqab and she has shaved her eyebrows on the pretext of weak eyesight, is she required to shave them or not?

Answer:
Yes, if she wears the niqab, she must wear it, even if it is a new one, because the one who is compelled to shave his head shaves and pays the expiation by the explicit text of the Qur'an:
And whoever among you is ill or has an ailment of the headفَمَن كَانَ مِنكُم مَّرِيضًا أَوْ بِهِ أَذًى مِّن رَّأْسِهِ فَفِدْيَةٌ مِّن
[Al-Baqarah 2:196]
charity. So if he needs to do something forbidden, one of the prohibitions of punishment, he does it and pays the expiation. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
