Islam stands for the protection of women and it scorns
artificial means of beautifying oneself. Allaah cursed
the women who did tattoos and plucked their brows and
the ones who did it for them because it would bring
about unhealthy body shaming and unwanted
exposure. But weightage is given to husband‟s wish
regarding the matter. Islam stresses on health and the
beautification of the soul. Thus it stands to conclude
that women should not pluck their brows. They can
brush it with a small comb and keep it in place and
perhaps trim the longer stubborn ones. Islam is a
religion which dictates healthy way of living also.
