The ruling on shaving the pubic hair for the sake of the stillborn
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: What is the ruling on shaving the pubic hair for the sake of the stillborn?
Answer:
It is a stone, a stone, a stone. Shaving the hair is a recommended practice (sunnah); he shaves it because it is a recommended practice, and he follows the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). However, if he shaves it for the sake of deception, to appear as one who is committed and preserves the recommended practices, when he is not, then this is showing off (riya') and hypocrisy (nifaq). There is no power nor strength except with Allah. And this is displaying religion for the sake of suppressing the jinn. It is feared that he may be among those about whom Allah the Exalted said:[Hud 11:15] They are counted, [Hud 11:16] This falls under this warning. Yes.

Whoever desires the life of this world and its adornments - We fully repay them for their deeds therein, and they therein
مَن كَانَ يُرِيدُ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتَهَا نُوَفِّ إِلَيْهِمْ أَعْمَالَهُمْ فِيهَا وَهُمْ فِيهَا لَاThose are the ones for whom there is not in the Hereafter but the Fire
أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ فِي الْآخِرَةِ إِلَّا النَّارُ
