Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Your Eminence, father, is the sunnah (recommended practice) to shave the mustache or to trim it?

Answer:
Shaving is trimming; one cuts the hair. He said, “Cut them.” The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Cut the mustaches and let the beards grow.جزوا الشوارب وأعفوا اللحى
. Yes, cut them. Yes.
