Question
Asalamu Aleykoum are temporary false eyelashes haram if I remove them before wudu and prayer?
Islamic Ruling & Answer
Walekumussalam,
Yes, temporary false eyelashes are permissible for beautification as long as they are not made from human or pig hair and are not used for the purpose of showing off or deceiving others. However, they must be removed before performing wudu and praying so that the water can reach the required areas during wudu.
And Allah knows best.
