Mukadimah

Eyelash extensions is a method used to enhance the length, curliness, fullness, and thickness of natural eyelashes. [1] The extensions may be made from several materials including from animal’s fur, synthetic, or horsehair. This method can be divided into two; either using false temporary eyelashes that can be removed and semi-permanent eyelashes. The main method of applying the extensions is by using an adhesive glue to individually stick the extensions to the eyelash line. This is to prevent the eyelashes from adhering to each other. [2]

The addition of fake eyelashes for women are usually for beautification purposes, it is done to make the eyelashes appear curlier, fuller and thicker. This phenomenon is spreading rapidly especially with the involvement of local celebrities. Thus, to answer this question a few basics should be taken into account.

Islam Does Not Prohibit Beauty

Basically, Islam does not prohibit Muslims to beautify themselves. Furthermore, Islam even encourages Muslims to always appear neat and beautiful, humbly and appropriately. A hadith from the Prophet PBUH states:

إِنَّ اللَّهَ جَمِيلٌ يُحِبُّ الْجَمَالَ

“Allah is Beautiful, He loves beauty.”

Sahih Muslim (275)

Imam al-Munawi said: “He loves beauty” means people that beautify themselves from among you…” Refer Faidh al-Qodir (2/224)

Syeikh Dr Yusuf al-Qaradhawi in his book al-Halal wa al-Haram fi al-Islam (pg. 202-203) said:

In an incident, a man came to the Prophet PBUH wearing worn-out and shabby clothes, the Prophet PBUH said to him:

أَلَكَ مَالٌ؟ قَالَ: نَعَم. قَالَ: مِن أَيِّ المالِ؟ قَالَ: مِن كُلِّ المالِ قَد أَعطَانِيَ اللهُ تَعَالَى. قَالَ: فَإِذَا آتَاكَ اللهُ مَالاً فَليُرَ أَثَرُ نِعمَةِ اللهِ عَلَيكَ وَكَرَامَتِهِ

“Do you have any wealth?” He said: “Yes, all kinds of wealth.” He said: “What kinds of wealth?” He said: “Allah has given me all sorts of wealth.” He said: “If Allah has given you wealth, then let the effect of Allah’s blessing and generosity be seen on you.”
