Kajal for Men

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by CouncilofUlama.co.za

Q: Are men allowed to put kajal in their eyes?


A:Kajal is a cosmetic used by females and does not contain any medicinal properties. It is purely used by females for beautification. It will not be appropriate for males to use Kajal. Males may use Surma (collyrium). The use of Surma is proven in the Sunnah. (Abu Dawood V4 P9)
