The Ruling on Shaping the Eyebrows and Concealing Them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Umm Thamir, says: Shaykh Salih, in our society, and recently, some women have been shaping their eyebrows with black ink using a pen, then they cover the upper and lower parts of the eyebrows with makeup so that they take on the form of plucked eyebrows. What is the ruling in this case?
Answer:
This is not permissible. It is not permissible for a woman to tamper with her eyebrows, whether by cutting, shaving, plucking, or shaping. She should leave her eyebrows in their natural state, and they are beautiful, praise be to Allah, so she should not change anything about them. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who plucks her eyebrows and the one who has them plucked. Similarly, this includes tampering with the eyebrows without need. Yes.
