The Ruling on Plucking the Eyebrows and Removing Eyebrow Hair

Question:
In the program, one of the female listeners says: The questioner, S.S. from Riyadh, says: Our sister asks about the plucking of eyebrows, which is a cursed act, and what is the evidence for that? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Plucking is the removal of eyebrow hair, whether by cutting it, shaving it, or using any hair-removal substances. All of this is the cursed plucking. The evidence for this is that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The one who plucks is the woman who removes her eyebrow hair, and the one who has it plucked is the one who asks another to remove her eyebrow hair. This is part of altering the creation of Allah, which Satan vowed to lead the children of Adam to. He said: Therefore, removing eyebrow hair is part of altering the creation of Allah. It is cursed, as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stated, and it is a major sin. Regrettably, this is common among Muslim women, especially those who expose their faces, where one sees ugliness and distortion in removing the beauty that Allah created for them. It is also strange that they put something of green dye in its place. Yes, which is more beautiful, I ask you: this hair that Allah created in its proper place, or this distorted thing that she puts on her eyebrow? But Satan, may Allah curse him, wants to mislead the children of Adam.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good and do you good.
