The Ruling on Dyes Used by Women

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is your view on the prohibition of the dyes that women use nowadays, by analogy to the prohibition of tattooing?

Answer:
And following that, there is no harm in them. This is a sunnah (recommended practice) that has been delayed in the jar, and a sunnah and other things, except for the dyes that solidify on the limb or on the skin and prevent water from reaching it. These are prohibited; it is not permissible for a woman to use them because they prevent ritual purity. As for the dyes that have no substance, do not solidify, and do not prevent water, there is no harm in a woman using them. Yes.
