Is a man allowed to shave his mostache as it comes in hadith that one should grow ones beard and cut his mostache so does shaving go under cutting? explain please.
Answer:
(Fatwa: 1376/224/=L/1429)
It is permitted to shave moustache, the word (jazzu) mentioned in Hadith mean: cutting off, while the other word (uHfu) in Hadith means: trimming moustache closer to shaving. Therefore, it is better to trim down moustache closer to shaving.
