Q: What is the ruling on women removing their facial hair?
A: This needs to be discussed in detail. If it is normal facial hair, it is not permissible to remove it according to the Hadith: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) cursed the women who practice Nams (facial hair removal) and those on whom Nams is practiced. Nams is removal of hair from the face and the eyebrows. However, if there is excessive facial hair that defaces a woman, such as a mustache or beard, there is no harm in removing this because it deforms her face and harms her.
