The extent of shortening the hair

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it sufficient to take some of his hair, or must he cut all of it?

Answer:
He should shorten all of the hair, just as he would shave it all. This is the stronger position. There is a difference of opinion among the scholars; some hold that shortening part of it is sufficient for him. However, the correct view is that he should shorten it all. This is the stronger position, just as he would shave it all.
