Breast implants

Submitted by user2 on Thu, 2018-11-15 07:22

Q: I wanted to know if it would be a gunnah if I had breast implants.

My reasons for wanting to do it is because of black magic. Due to black magic I have lost my appearance totally to the extent where it's really embarrassing for me. Now I want to know if it's allowed to get implants only for my husband as I know he doesn't like my appearance. I don't want to cheat on him or anything. I just want to correct what the black magic has done to me.

Can you please tell me if it will be a gunnah.
