Q: Can a woman clip or shape her eyebrows?

A:
If the eyebrows are dense and appear abnormal which may cause the husband to disincline from the wife, then it will be permissible to clip them to the extent that would make them appear normal. However, if the clipping or shaping of the eyebrows are done to emulate fashion, then it will not be permissible.
