Is there a difference between removing hair for plucking the eyebrows by pulling it out, shaving it, or cutting it?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh: And upon you peace.

The questioner : I have a quick question, if you permit?

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner : He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
May Allah curse the one who plucks her eyebrows and the one who has them plucked... لَعَنَ اللهُ النَّامصةَ والمتنمِّصةَ ...
to the end of the hadith. The point here is the namisah: the namisah is the one who removes hair from the eyebrows, and then the term was applied to removing hair from the face in general.

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner : So some scholars distinguished between removing it with a razor or pulling it out, and they permitted removing it with a razor. Is this correct?

The Shaykh : It is not correct.

The questioner : It is not correct? Meaning, removing it is forbidden by any means whatsoever?

The Shaykh: Yes.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : And beware of that.
