Dyeing eyebrows is generally considered permissible in Islam, as there is no explicit prohibition against it in religious texts.
Here's a breakdown:
-
Permissibility based on Absence of Prohibition: The foundation of Islamic jurisprudence often rests on the principle that actions are permissible unless explicitly forbidden. Since no specific text prohibits dyeing eyebrows, it remains within the realm of what is allowed.
-
Not Considered Thinning: Dyeing the eyebrows is different from plucking or thinning them, which some Islamic scholars consider haram because it's viewed as altering Allah's creation. Dyeing only changes the color and not the shape or substance of the eyebrow.
-
Not Changing Allah's Creation: Many scholars differentiate between permissible adornment and forbidden alteration of Allah's creation. Dyeing, in this context, is seen as adornment rather than a fundamental change. The eyebrow's structure remains intact.
Therefore, dyeing eyebrows is not typically considered haram in Islam, assuming it's done without harmful substances and doesn't involve plucking or shaping the eyebrows in a way that contradicts Islamic teachings.
