Chapter: The Time Limit For That
Hadith 14
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ هُوَ ابْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : " وَقَّتَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي قَصِّ الشَّارِبِ وَتَقْلِيمِ الْأَظْفَارِ وَحَلْقِ الْعَانَةِ وَنَتْفِ الْإِبْطِ ، أَنْ لَا نَتْرُكَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا " . وَقَالَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى : أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً .
´It was narrated that Anas bin Malik said:` "A time limit was set for us, by the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), regarding trimming the mustache, clipping the nails and plucking the pubes; we were not to leave that for more than forty days," on one occasion he said: "Forty nights."
