if you don't, then please, after reading this post, change. maybe you can't undo your yesterday. at least, let other people know and maybe not do it in the future.
the very first thing i realized which is wrong is the fake eyelashes. lots of brides today-Muslim brides especially, put on fake eyelashes on their wedding day. in Islam, wearing fake eyelashes is HARAM. it's forbidden. *WHY?* well, in Islam, we are taught to respect who we are for what we are. it's just like the 'Nose' episode on Glee. everybody is told not to change anything about themselves. same here. if our eyelashes are short and not thick, then, that's the way it should be. not applying fake eyelashes just to feel beautiful. just like Rachel, she decided to cancel the nose job surgery. if they can do it, why can't we?
same here with the coloured contact lense. if you can see in the picture on the right, the girl's eyes seem bigger than it should be. right? did you notice? first of all, wearing contact lense is forbidden in Islam, it's HARAM as well. why? for all the same reasons stated above. it's just the same. if you can respect what Allah has given to you, then you wouldn't wear coloured contact lenses. Allah has made all of us beautiful, just the way we should. we are the ones who should accept our beauty and preserve it. not change it in any ways so that we look MORE beautiful. that's not the reason Allah made us. in that case, He would've made us all ugly, so that all of us could undergo plastic surgeries and put our lives at stake. He loves us, that's why he made us all special & beautiful at the same time.
Now, we enter the hardest resistable phase ever-the makeup. obviously, you would want to look pretty on your wedding day. trust me, even the most beautiful Hollywood celebrities want to look pretty on their wedding day. i watched this one show called 'Dos and Don'ts in a wedding'. it's a show for brides and groom. and there are a few panels, talking about their experiences attending weddings. when it came to makeup, the panels told the viewers to apply the makeup with the wedding dress on a few days before the wedding. they even told the brides to set up their hair and makeup and the dress. the, the bride must look at herself in the mirror, she must look at herself as a whole, not just the hair and the makeup. and when you look at yourself from top to bottom, you'd realized that you've had too much makeup on. the picture here resembles heavy makeup-even if you think she looks pretty. and weddings are nothing about heavy makeup. they want to see the bride looking pretty, like she is. because she is. they wouldn't want her to look different on her wedding day. hmm...so, after looking at pictures of brides on their wedding day, i've made a decision. maybe when i get married, i'd make a few changes. i would request all of the things Islam wants and try my very hardest to resist the rest. insya-Allah...
