The ruling on removing or thinning eyebrow hair and assisting in doing so
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. In his second question, he says: What is the ruling on removing hair from the eyebrows or thinning it for a woman?
Answer:
Removing hair from the eyebrows or thinning the eyebrow hair is what is known as *nams* (plucking the eyebrows), for which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) pronounced a curse. He said, "May Allah curse the one who plucks her eyebrows and the one who has it done." The one who plucks her eyebrows is the one who removes the hair from her own eyebrows, and the one who has it done is the one who asks another to remove it for her. This is a major sin among the major sins. Therefore, women must not touch the hair on their eyebrows, neither by cutting, plucking, nor shaving, but rather they should leave them as Allah created them, as beauty for them. Fiddling with the eyebrows is part of changing the creation of Allah, which Satan pledged to command the children of Adam to do. He said, "And I will surely command them, so they will change the creation of Allah." Changing the eyebrows is included in this, as mentioned by the ink of the Ummah, 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him). Yes?
