Removing the hair between the eyebrows
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
Another question was asked by someone regarding the removal of the eyebrows, and Shaykh Muhammad ibn Sabah answered that removing the eyebrows is an abomination. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The scholars of language have explained that *namis* (plucking) refers to removing the eyebrows. However, the questioner mentioned that if the eyebrows are joined together—some women have eyebrows that are connected with no gap between them, so the line near the nose also has hair—some scholars have pointed out that there is no harm in removing this gap. If one removes the gap between the eyebrows so that they are separated, we see no harm in it. This is similar to if one removes the mustache and trims the beard; she may cut and remove it because it is disfiguring and because it makes her resemble men. These are things that may be rare, but if they occur, they should be removed, and this is not considered a defect.
The questioner:
The logic is that she has a lesson every Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday.
The Shaykh:
Similarly, as Muslim ibn Rayaan mentioned, there are Qur'an lessons and knowledge lessons, and there is a library of the Shaykh al-Islam with some lessons. [It is] a broadcast from Rayaan. Yes. Yes. Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Praise be to Allah. Yes.
