Question
Is it permissible for males to use a GHD hot iron to straighten their hair of their beards and head. I see many huffaaz and even moulanas using a GHD hot iron to straighten their beards. A GHD hot iron is typically used by women to straighten their hair.
Answer
Men and women using this device of Iblees are under shaitaani influence. Their brains are vermiculated by shaitaaniyat, hence they seek to change the natural appearance which Allah Ta'ala has created for them. The Qur'aan Majeed describes all such evil tampering with natural appearances as Taghyeer khalqillaah (Changing the creation of Allah). The huffaaz and molvis who suffer with corrupt effeminate tendencies are fussaaq. They should not be engaged to do Imaamate.
