Plucking the Eyebrows and Cutting Hair for Women
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The second message received by the program came from the sister kingdom of Morocco. A sister from there sent it, saying: Al-Mawdal, Qasaba, Jandal. Our sister’s message is actually long and contains two questions. The first question says: My honorable master, I ask: Is plucking the eyebrows and cutting hair for a woman forbidden or permissible, even though I go out wearing a hijab covering in front of men?
Answer:
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) The point is that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who removes the hair from her face and eyebrows. However, the meaning of the one who removes is taking the hair from the face that is removed by plucking or shaving; this is the one who removes. If it is in the eyebrows, it is more severe. Therefore, it is not permissible for a woman to remove the hair from her eyebrows, nor the hair from her face by plucking or shaving. In reality, this does not beautify the body, but it is the habit of Satan to make people overlook what harms them and what contradicts the Shari'ah of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The result is that it is not for a woman to remove the hair from her eyebrows or the hair on her face that does not call for wiping or plucking, but rather to remove it. Or rather, the best thing is obedience to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and caution regarding what he forbade.

Answer:
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)
He cursed the one who plucks and the one who is plucked, and He cursed the one who files her teeth and the one who files them, and He cursed
لعن اللامصة والمتلمصة، ولعن الواجب والمتوشنة، ولعنthe one who plucks and the one who is plucked,
المغاشرة والمتغشرة لثدي الأضواء الحسن،
