Question

Is there any authentic narration stating that ‘ibadah will not be accepted from a one whose pubic hair is longer than a grain of rice?

 

Answer

I have not come a Hadith which mentions this.

The ‘Ulama mention that one should remove the hair from the pubic region before it reaches the length of a rice grain. This is probably a recommendation.

Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) ordered that unwanted hair should not be left for more than forty nights.

(Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 258)

Kindly contact a Mufti/Darul Ifta for further clarification.

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

التخريج من المصادر العربية

صحيح مسلم:
(٢٥٨) – حدثنا يحيى بن يحيى، وقتيبة بن سعيد، كلاهما عن جعفر، قال: يحيى، أخبرنا جعفر بن سليمان، عن أبي عمران الجوني، عن أنس بن مالك، قال: – قال أنس – «وقت لنا في قص الشارب، وتقليم الأظفار، ونتف الإبط، وحلق العانة، أن لا نترك أكثر من أربعين ليلة».
