The Ruling on Shaving with a Clipper in 'Umrah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner, the brother Hamad, asks: Is shaving with an electric clipper at the zero setting considered shaving or shortening the hair in 'Umrah? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
It is considered shortening. Shaving is done with a razor; shaving is done with a razor, and no hair is left. As for the clipper, the roots of the hair remain, so it is shortening. Yes.
