Is it permissible for a woman to remove the hair that grows on her face?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman from the Sultanate of Oman, (M. M.), says in her question: Is it permissible for a woman to remove some of the hair that grows on her face, knowing that it bothers her, such as the hair that grows on the upper lip and the sides of the cheeks?
Answer:
A woman does not touch the face or the eyebrows if the hair present is ordinary. However, if something grows on her that harms her or disfigures her, such as a beard or a mustache, she removes it. As for ordinary hair that causes no harm and no disfigurement, she does not touch it.
Likewise, she does not take the eyebrows or take anything from them, because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and the scholars of language said that plucking the eyebrows is taking the hair of the eyebrows and the hair of the face. But if there is something on the face that disfigures the natural appearance... such as a beard or a mustache; then she removes it, and there is no blame on her. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
