Summary
The supplied text lays out the foundations for the ruling before turning to eyelashes. Islam does not forbid moderate beautification, but joining hair (al-wasl) is prohibited on the basis of hadiths that mention a curse upon the woman who attaches hair and the one who asks for it to be attached. Imam al-Nawawi held that this is absolutely forbidden, including extensions made from human hair or from impure sources. The text provided stops before it states a specific conclusion on eyelash extensions.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Imam al-Nawawi berkata, hadis ini secara tegas menunjukkan haramnya menyambung rambut, dan laknat untuk wanita yang menyambung rambut atau pemakai yang disambungkan rambutnya secara mutlak.
