(أُمُورٌ تَفْعَلُ خِلَالَ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا)
(Things to be done within forty days)
Hadith 4422
وَعَن أَنس قَالَ: وُقِّتَ لَنَا فِي قَصِّ الشَّارِبِ وَتَقْلِيمِ الْأَظْفَارِ وَنَتْفِ الْإِبِطِ وَحَلْقِ الْعَانَةِ أَنْ لَا تُتْرَكَ أَكثر من أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَة. رَوَاهُ مُسلم
Anas said they were told not to let more than forty days elapse between the times they clipped the moustache, pared the nails, plucked out hairs under the armipits and shaved the pubes. Muslim transmitted it.
