The Meaning of Qa'z in the Hadith
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I forbade a man from qad' (shaving part of the head), and he said that qad' does not occur except with a razor, whereas removing the hair with something other than a razor is not qad'. Is this correct?
Answer:
This is invalid and not correct. Qad' is removing some of the hair of the head and leaving some, whether by shaving, cutting, plucking, or otherwise, or by applying a depilatory substance. The important thing is that you remove some of the hair of the head and leave some; that is qad'. By any means? Yes.
