The law of shaving eyebrows is an important discussion for Muslims. Especially for women who often dress, shave, or even embroider eyebrows.

In addition to the self-rehearsing law, Islam also explains what the law is for shaving eyebrows. Based on the argument of Quran, hadith, and the opinion of scholars becomes the basis of this law.

Islam does explain everything from the most common to the most intimate. However, if everything that is prohibited in Islam turns out to have good things in terms of medical.

Shaving eyebrows is indeed one of the treatments to make you more beautiful and neat. Or even it has developed now with the term eyebrow tattoo which is alleged to have the shape of the ideal eyebrows.

So, what is the law in shaving eyebrows for both women and men?

It turns out that Fiqh's knowledge has discussed the Law on shaving eyebrows for men or women. Sometimes we don't know whether it is allowed to shave eyebrows in Islam.

In some scholars' opinions, fiqh experts argue that shaving eyebrows is forbidden. This view is according to some of the most massive fiqh and mu'tabar (trusted) experts in Islamic fiqh.

Several hadiths have also been mentioned that there is a prohibition for women and men who shave their eyebrows. There are even some hadiths that Sharih (firmly) condemn the dynamics and al-mutammishah doing this.

"The interests allowed in sharia, for example for treatment. Namely if there are diseases such as tumors in the eyebrows, then to treat them, the eyebrows must be shaved off. Therefore, including Lil-hajat, there is a need for treatment. But if there is no such need, but only feel dissatisfied with waja's appearance because the eyebrow shape is considered to be incompatible with taste, then it can be said to be an act of not being grateful for God's gift who is All Knowing and Most Perfect," said Deputy Chairperson Fatwa Dr Maulana as quoted from the halal mui page.

In this understanding, according to the ulama, shaving eyebrows, if without interests justified by sharia, the law is prohibited. In addition, if it is replaced with a permanent tattoo, it is clearly haram.

The reason is because making tattoos is done by injuring yourself, namely by stabbing needles into the body which will be made eyebrows and inserted ink. So that Islam also looks at it in a very risky health perspective.

One of the most assertive hadiths in discussing the law of shaving eyebrows is to say, Rasulullah SAW interprets women who shave their eyebrows or ask for their eyebrows to be shaved. (HR Abu Daud, with the hadan).

Then there are other hadiths that also mention, Rasulullah SAW performs women who ask for their eyebrows to be shaved. (HR Bukhari).

In addition, the ulama also added that shaving or pulling the eyebrows is still haram even though it only aims for beauty care.

As for other purposes as certain symbols such as those used by women at night, this is certainly even more forbidden. So the scholars categorize it from ornamental to removing or shaving eyebrows into the excessive category that is forbidden by Islam.

According to Imam Nawawi, the namishah as mentioned in the hadith history of Abu Daud is a woman who shaves her eyebrows to make her eyebrows very thin.

However, Imam Nawawi only focused on the eyebrows so that other hair besides the eyebrows around the face he was not categorized in the hadith presentation.

What's more, if you look at the expenditure to shave to beautify the eyebrows by tattooing the eyebrows, it costs more. As it is known that for those who spend funds, the sustenance of God's mandate, for things that are not useful in terms of worship is a forbidden act of waste.

And give to the family who are close to their rights, to the poor and the people on the way: and don't waste (hartem) wastefully. In fact, those entrepreneurs are brothers and sisters. The relationship is very disbelieving to his Rabb. (QS. Al Isra: 26-27).

Apart from according to ulama fiqh or hadith, it turns out that in the medical world it also discusses the impact of shaving eyebrows which also has a bad impact on health.

Quoted from Healthy, health scientists conclude, shaving eyebrows has the worst impact on the eyes and health of other organs.
