Makeup in prayer

shanu · **Makeup in prayer -** 11-21-2005

Hi
I would like to know if if is ok to take wudhu with makeup on? Must we completely clean our face when we take wudhu. What happens if we work in a customer service sector that requires us to wear make up. Must we remove the makeup each time we want to pray? Please help me

Confused Shanu

wat u trying to say. A woman with hijaab dont look good with make up..
*thinks*

I kinda agree with that one.
If u think about it.....if she is wearing hijab she is being modest. Wearing make up scraps the modesty so there is no need for hijab.

Gosh!! Im learning.

Though, I must say- if ur marreid. Its a different story.

Allah ma3ak

(edited) why do you need to wear makeup in the first place?

Her job requires her to, apparently. That seems kind of strange, but whatever.

libyanhero · **Re: Makeup in prayer -** 11-21-2005

no i dont think Aishah(ra) wore any makeup unless at home for her husband where no other man can see but the way I see it, she is beautiful with or without it but sometimes I prefer without because it makes her more innocent where makeup makes her more dangerous in a way because its not for the one thing anymore, its a seduction to any man who finds it beautiful. I did not say makeup doesn't make u more beautified but according to modesty no and I like the modest women.

^ i agree with ur comments brother.

lol
no need to remove make up wen doing wudu
one big splash of h2o and it comes off automatically

aisha · **Re: Makeup in prayer -** 11-21-2005

salaam.
i agree wiv you brother. some good points made.
wassalam

Halima · **Re: Makeup in prayer -** 11-28-2005

It wouldn't be so smart to put on makeup right before you make wu'du to make prayers? agree? what is the point of putting on makeup when you will wash your face again? Besides that why would you want to prettify yourself when you have to concentrate on what you say to the Al-mighty instead of how you look? So in other words yes, I would say that it is very necessary to wash off your make-up before you pray. You must. Otherwise you prayers will be nullified.

assalamu alaikum

Haiz
Actually 1st of all, im in singapore. The environmen here is totally different.I dont make up before ma prayer. That would be absurd lol. Im a business management student and am attached to work. My work requires makeup.
2ndly im an indian, i usually prefer a shawl on my head. What i really meant was. After work, i come home around 4.00pm. My zohor prayer is gg to end and asar is gg to start. If i were to wash ma face n really cleanse it, i would miss my zohor.

So what i was trying to ask is, if it was ok if i give a quick splash on ma face, n take ma wudhu. Instead of really scrubbing ma face n then take wudhu. What do i do in a situation like this. Because by the time i really scrub i usually miss ma zohor. Anyway thanks 4 ur comments.

Cheers

i think you should do wadhu in advance..if the water misses the face coz of mkeup then ur salaat wont be accepted...washing the face is a faraz...anyway sis u have to wear makeup for work??coz the people who wear niqaab are the ones who are allowed to wear makeup as they are hiding their faces from ghair maharim...but Allah swt has allhamdullilah given us natuarl beauty(then theres me saying im not pretty but still im learning)
