Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
She has a question, asking: Is applying kohl and cutting the nails permissible during the daytime of Ramadan, or not?
Answer:
Cutting the nails is permissible, there is no doubt about it in Ramadan, nor in any other time. Likewise, plucking the armpit hair and shaving the pubic hair, all of this is prescribed in Ramadan, and in other times.
As for kohl, some scholars disliked it during the day because it may flow down to the throat. The correct view is that it does not invalidate the fast. Applying kohl during the day does not invalidate the fast, but leaving it off and applying it at night is better and further from doubt. Otherwise, the correct view is that kohl in Ramadan does not invalidate the fast. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
