Ruling on taking from the beard and fingernails of a deceased person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Is it permissible to trim the beard or fingernails of a deceased person?

A: There is no evidence for this, and if something is taken from them, there is no harm. Some scholars specifically mentioned the fingernails and the beard. However, shaving the pubic hair and circumcision are not prescribed for a deceased person because there is no evidence for doing so.
