Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. This questioner asks: Is it permissible to remove hair from the chest, thighs, and legs, or is it imitating women?
Answer:
You studied this yesterday in the hadith that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do the nūr on his body. So, removing body hair is not a problem. Removing the hair that causes a person discomfort, collects foul odors, and grows long causing discomfort is not a problem. This is part of cleanliness.
