Is it Haram to remove hair while on period?

Editorial team Published on

No, it is not Haram (forbidden) for a woman to remove hair (like pubic or underarm hair) or cut her nails while menstruating; it's considered permissible by most scholars, as there's no explicit prohibition in Islamic texts. While some prefer delaying such acts until purity (after menses) if possible, it's mainly a matter of personal preference or a mild dislike (makruh) for some, not a sin, especially since menses is a natural state beyond one's control.
