Is plucking the facial hair other than the eyebrows forbidden?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is plucking the facial hair other than the eyebrows forbidden?

The Shaykh : Yes, it is forbidden. Plucking the facial hair is part of *namis* (plucking the eyebrows), for which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his family cursed the one who does it. It is one of the major sins, whether it is done to the eyebrows, the cheeks, or elsewhere.
