Q: Is it permissible for a woman to take body massage from a woman in fasting? Is it permissible to pluck facial hairs and wax during fast?
A: Massage, waxing and the removing of hair by whatever means from the body does not invalidate the fast, however care should be taken that other prohibitions of shariat are not commited such as exposing of the aurah and the wasting of precious time in this auspicious month.
And Allah knows best
