Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
Plucking a woman's eyebrows is a forbidden act of namṣ (plucking of eyebrows) for which the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, cursed the doer, whether the woman does it herself or through another. It is a change in Allah's creation. However, if there is hair outside the scope of the eyebrows, such as on a mole, it is permissible to remove it to eliminate a blemish, not to achieve beauty.
