The reason for the following is because it makes them feel cool and stand out in front of other friends etc.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Firstly, it is important to understand that in Islam, our greatest role model is our beloved prophet Muhammad (SAW). As Muslims, we should follow his lifestyle to become successful in this world and the hereafter. We should also try to avoid adopting things that resemble the non-believers in regards to appearance etc. This is mainly because it has clearly been mentioned in a Hadith of the Holy Prophet (SAW) that, &quot;<em>He who copies any people is one of them&quot;.<\/em><a href=\"#_ftn1\" name=\"_ftnref1\" title=\"\">[1]<\/a>&nbsp;<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Secondly, in regards to having cut or slits in the eyebrows, there is a very famous Hadith:<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">&quot;Allah has cursed those women who practice tattooing and those women who have themselves tattooed, and those women who get their hair removed from their eyebrows and faces (except the beard and the moustache), and those who make artificial spaces between their teeth for beauty, whereby they change Allah&#39;s creation.&quot;<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">In another narration, it is mentioned that Sayyidina Abdullah Ibn Masood (r.a) narrates that the Prophet of Allah (s.a.w ) has said, &ldquo;Allah (SWT) has cursed those women who modify their eyebrows or ask others to do it for them.&quot;<a href=\"#_ftn2\" name=\"_ftnref2\" title=\"\">[2]<\/a><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">This above Hadith is a clear and stern warning to those who shape, pluck or modify their eyebrows in any way whatsoever.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">In regards to the above two ahadith, we find that the ahadith are referring to women, however, the same ruling can apply and be implied to men. So in conclusion to all the above, it will be impermissible to have slits in the eyebrows.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Only Allah knows best<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Written by Maulana Belaal Ahmed<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Checked and approved by Mufti Mohammed Tosir Miah<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Darul Ifta Birmingham<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\" \/>\n<div id=\"ftn1\">\n<p>\n\t\t\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" name=\"_ftn1\" title=\"\">[1]<\/a> Abu Dawood<\/span><\/span>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"ftn2\">\n<p>\n\t\t\t<span style=\"font-size:14px;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><a href=\"#_ftnref2\" name=\"_ftn2\" title=\"\">[2]<\/a> Sahih Al Bukhari<\/span><\/span>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t&nbsp;\n\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t&nbsp;\n\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fatwa ID: 04305 Answered by:&nbsp;Maulana Belaal Ahmed &nbsp; Question Assalamu Alaikum.
