Is it permissible to lengthen the eyebrows in the event that half of them were plucked in childhood, leading to the forehead appearing larger?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is impermissible to lengthen eyebrow hair for the purpose of adornment. However, if it is considered a disfigurement or a defect, then it is permissible to lengthen them to the extent that removes the defect. This is because removing a defect and restoring something to its natural state is not considered altering Allah's creation.
