The ruling on plucking eyebrow hair for a woman in the waiting period

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I plucked some of my eyebrow hair before completing the waiting period after my husband, so what is required of me?

Answer:
Plucking the eyebrows is not permissible, neither for a woman in the waiting period nor for anyone else; it is forbidden. This is what is known as plucking the eyebrows, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who plucks her eyebrows and the one who has them plucked. This is not because of the waiting period, but because it is forbidden always and forever for the woman in the waiting period.
