Is it permissible to file or sharpen the teeth (for aesthetic purposes)?
Chapter on Utensils
Al-Mughni
Book of Purification
Primary text
The one who files the teeth to make them sharp and attractive (Al-Washira) and the one who permits it to be done upon her (Al-Mustawshira) are subject to prohibition. A further narration indicates a curse upon the tattooer (Al-Washima) and the one tattooed (Al-Mustawshima), where tattooing involves puncturing the skin and filling the wound with kohl.
