Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to trim the beard, armpit hair, and pubic hair of a deceased person?
Answer:
This is recommended: trimming his beard and clipping his fingernails if there is something to clip. It is recommended to clip his fingernails.
As for shaving the pubic hair, it is a matter of consideration. We do not know of any clear evidence for it, and it may be difficult regarding the private parts. This requires evidence, and the closest view to me is to leave it alone.
As for trimming the beard and clipping the fingernails, it is easy, and the scholars have explicitly stated it. It is better to do so if the fingernails are long and the beard is trimmed; this is better.
