Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on shaving the pubic hair? Does it have a specific timing in the Shari'ah?
Answer:
It has no fixed time. Shaving the pubic hair, cutting the nails, trimming the mustache, and removing the armpit hair are among the characteristics of the fitrah (the innate natural disposition). These are among the characteristics of the fitrah, from the sunnah (recommended practice) of the Prophets. So there is no specific limit for it, except that it was mentioned in the hadith that one should not leave it for more than forty days. And if he does it every week, that is better. Yes.
