Question

I want to remove the hair in between my eyebrows, above my nose, and extending into my hair-line. Can I pluck stray hairs? Can I trim bushy eyebrows?

Answer

Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu

No, it is not permissible for females to pluck their eyebrows. Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) cursed a Mutanammisa (a female who seeks to remove her eyebrows).
