Q: I have recently started a part time make up course so that I can start earning money to help with expenses for my husband and kids. I have already spent money on the course and on buying the necessary things to do make up for other clients but I realized that it may not be permissible to do make up for others.
1. Would I get the sin for doing make up for women who then go without hijab to functions or mix with non mahrams? Will my income be haraam?
2. Also are we allowed to use stick on synthetic lashes for women who request so? If I had realized earlier I would not have invested in this course and the make up needed
A:
1. If you are supporting any of the women in the wrong then you are also wrong.
2. If it is pure and not human hair then it is permissible provided they are removed at the time of ghusl.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Q: I’d just like to clarify whether I would get the sin if a woman I apply make up for then goes to a function or gathering where non mahrams will see her?
A: You should not support anybody in sin and transgression.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
