Ruling on a woman removing the hair from her hands and legs
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on a woman removing the hair on her hands and legs using a remover or otherwise?
Answer:
We know of nothing regarding this; it is a matter about which Allah has been silent, so there is no blame on removing the hair from the hands and legs. Likewise, if a beard or mustache grew on her, that would be mutilation that disfigures her, so there is no objection to removing it. The only reprehensible thing is removing the eyebrows or the customary hair on the face; this is prohibited because it is plucking, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the one who plucks.
