Islamic College of Australia teacher Umm Jamaal Ud-Din says there's no excuse for plucking
The Saudi-trained Islamic College of Australia teacher, who converted to Islam 28 years ago, is weighing into a hot topic doing the rounds at Sunni workshops in western Sydney.
The daughter and granddaughter of lay Christian preachers told her followers engaging in acts that were against the will of Allah were unforgivable sins.
For women, it is sinful to pluck their eyebrows as it is for men to groom their beards, under a fundamentalist interpretation of the Hadith.
In April, Sheikh Mohamad Doar told a room of teenage girls in at Punchbowl they would incur the wrath of Allah of they plucked their eyebrows, waxed their body or shaved.
'You are not allowed the remove the hair of the eyebrow, it's a major sin,' the preacher from the hardline Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaah Association said.
'The lady who plucks her eyebrows and the one who gets them plucked, they're both cursed by Allah.'
He was referring to the hadith, describing the actions of the Prophet Mohammad, as part of a question and answer session organised by Muslim charity Sisters United.
