Asl i would like to ask about the ruling of shaving by the private parts and how long must that hair be for the namaaz to be invalid.

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org
Answer

Q: What is the area of shaving the pubic hair for a male and female?
A: The area immediately under the navel is not to be shaven. The area of shaving for a person (male / female) is above and around the private parts. If possible, it is commendable to shave around the hind private parts as well. (Al-Kaamil, commentary of Muslim; Imaam Nawawi vol. 1 pg. 128).

It is Makrooh to leave one’s pubic hair for more than 40 days. The word, ?Makrooh? literally means disliked and it is a degree of impermissibility.
