The ruling on shaving the hair on the cheeks and the neck
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a man to shave the hair that grows on the cheeks, and likewise the hair that grows on the neck below the chin?
Answer:
What grows on the cheeks and the chin is the beard. These are the sideburns; they are called sideburns. So it is not permissible to shave what grows on the cheeks and the chin. As for what grows on the neck, the throat, and the back of the head, he may remove it if it causes him discomfort, because it is not part of the beard.
