The ruling on using a cream to prevent hair growth in the armpits and the pubic area

Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: There is a cream in the markets that prevents or stops hair growth in the place where it is applied. What is the ruling on using this cream in the armpit and pubic areas?

Answer:
If it contains forbidden substances, it is not permissible to use it. However, if it does not contain forbidden substances, one should consult a doctor from a health perspective, as it may be harmful to health. One should consult a doctor to determine whether it is harmful to health or not. If it is harmful to health, it is not permissible to use it. Therefore, it is not permissible to use it in two cases: the first case is if it contains a forbidden substance, such as derivatives of pork or other forbidden items; the second case is if it is harmful to a person's health, for it is not permissible for a person to use anything that is harmful to his health, and praise be to Allah.
