The questioner: And plucking the hair from the legs and arms?The Shaykh: That does not fall under this; because it is not the *nams* known among the Arabs.But with this, we say: Removing hair from the legs and arms and the like, if it is for a need, such as the hair being excessive and disfiguring, then there is no harm.
