Question:

What is the proper method of removing the pubic hairs for men? What parts must be removed?

Answer:

Anas ibn Mälik رضى الله عنه reported, “The time we were given for trimming [our] moustaches, clipping [our] nails, plucking the hairs of [our] armpits, and shaving [our] pubes was to not leave it for more than 40 days.” [Muslim: 599]

While explaining this hadëth Imam Nawawë has mentioned, “The pubes are the hair that are above and around a male’s genitals.”

And Allah Knows Best
