Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you, O Shaykh: I heard some scholars say that shaving the mustache is done on certain occasions; what are those occasions?

The Shaykh : What does it become?

The questioner : On certain occasions.

The Shaykh : Shaving the mustache, and I will tell you that Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) said that one who shaves his mustache should be disciplined. Do you understand? Yes, that is it. He means that Imam Malik said that the one who shaves his mustache should be disciplined, because the Sunnah was only reported regarding shortening it, shortening the mustache or trimming the mustache. As for shaving it completely, he says that it is mutilation and that the one who does it should be disciplined.

The questioner : ... on the occasions

The Shaykh : There is nothing. There are no occasions or anything. The mustache is not shaved. Yes, after that.
