Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: What is the ruling on removing the hair on the neck, and is it considered part of the beard?
Answer:
The beard is what grows on the cheeks and the chin; this is the beard. What is called the sideburns and the chin, which grows at the junction of the two beards from below, this is the beard. So let it grow, honor it, and leave it as it is. If there is hair on the chest, the back, or the neck, this is not part of the beard. There is no harm in removing it. Yes.
