حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا صَدُقَةُ الدَّقِيقِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيُّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ قَالَ وَقَّتَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَلْقَ الْعَانَةِ وَتَقْلِيمَ الْأَظْفَارِ وَقَصَّ الشَّارِبِ وَنَتْفَ الْإِبِطِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا مَرَّةً قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد رَوَاهُ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ لَمْ يَذْکُرْ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ وُقِّتَ لَنَا وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 4200
Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ fixed forty days to shave the pubes, paring the nails, clipping the moustaches, and plucking the hair under the armpit. Abu Dawud said: Jafar bin Sulaiman transmitted it from Abu Imran on the authority of Anas. In this version he did not mention the Prophet ﷺ. He said: Forty days were fixed for us. This is a more correct version.
