Question

one of my eye lashes has grown so long almost 3-4 inches, why is it so? Does it indicate anything? People says it shouldn't be plucked, is it true? Sometimes it disturbs my eye, what shall I do?

Answer

It is permissible for you to trim the overgrown strand of hair in order to make it look normal.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
