The Ruling on Bleaching the Eyebrows

Question:
May Allah reward you and benefit Islam and the Muslims through you. This is a woman asking, and she says: What is the ruling on bleaching the eyebrows, and also plucking the hair from the face for a woman?

Answer:
Bleaching the eyebrows is not permissible. One must not tamper with the eyebrows by bleaching, cutting, plucking, or otherwise, for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who plucks her eyebrows and the one who has them plucked. So the eyebrows are left in the state in which Allah created them, and they are beauty for the woman; she does not interfere with them, unless there is obvious disfigurement in them. If there is disfigurement, it is removed, and the eyebrows remain as Allah the Exalted created them, and as women in the society have them, and one does not tamper with them. One does not tamper with the eyebrows, or dye them with dye, or cut them, or shave them. Yes.
