Women lightening their eyebrows
Fatwa  no. 21778  
Q:  The habit of lightening eyebrows has recently spread among women; they lighten  the hairs below and above the eyebrow, so that it resembles Nams (removing hair  from the face/eyebrows). This habit is an imitation of Western countries. The  lightening substance is also medically harmful. What is the ruling of Shari`ah  (Islamic law) on this deed? Please advise. May Allah reward you! It is worth  mentioning that most women request a written Fatwa (legal opinion issued by a  qualified Muslim scholar), and refuse to abide by verbal ones. May Allah make us  benefit from it and preserve the religion of this Ummah (nation based on one  creed). Indeed, He is the One able to do so.  
A: it is not permissible to lighten above and below the  eyebrows in the way that was mentioned, as it entails changing Allah's creation  and resembles Nams which is prohibited,
