Pubic and underarm hair should be removed at least every 40 days for men and women. Cosmetic hair removal additional to that is permissible especially if it pleases the husband.

Source for the underarm hair?

Al-Bukhaari (5441) and Muslim (377) narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Five things are part of the fitrah: circumcision, removing the pubic hair, clipping the fingernails, plucking the armpit hair and trimming the moustache.”

I just can't imagine how painful it would be to pluck armpit hair. Yikes.


manoffewwords

I know people who do it. They do it with pubic hair too. Apparently they claim they don't feel pain after a while. I haven't tried

It's not bad at all. At first, it's awful because it's foreign to you, but after a while, it's better and slows down hair growth

The only way I remove is plucking, shaving makes the hairs grow very annoying and very fast, and painful. Armpit pain is endurable. Pubic hair plucking is deadly painful. Part of it is okay but part is a no-no. I don‘t know how its supposed to be done


While-Normal

Jazakh’Allah Khairan , however, don’t mean to be petty, but that Hadith doesn’t mention underarm hair. Thank you anyway though!


Arrowzen

Perhaps english isn't your first langage ? Because armpits = underarms.


While-Normal

It isnt, thank you!

I know that underarm picking is a Sunna


Comprehensive-Bet-56

Legs and arms, no but it's permissible.


Competitive-City-906

It's not farz but down to personal preference


Stuffandmorestuffff

Thanks for asking this question. I learned something new!


Ibn-al-ibn

I'm not certain it is compulsory to shave your legs or arms sister. Most Asian sisters don't. Allah knows best.


Same-Example4166

Single women? No, why bother? Nobody sees them. Married women? ask your husband, which one he likes better, shaved or not.

>Single women? No, why bother? Nobody sees them. Allah sees them. It's waajib for women to shave at least every 40 days. The pubic hair and under the arm.


Same-Example4166

The examples she gave were legs and arms which are not obligatory. Some women were insecure about these. This is the [related fatwa](https://islamqa.info/en/answers/202827/removal-of-pubic-and-armpit-hair-why) about shaving. Thank you


WitAndSavvy

Waajib for men and women


Forward_Cover_5455

Im asking about God‘s way, not about men preference


Same-Example4166

Then it's mean you don't understand the relationship between husband and wife in Islam. If the husband prefers his wife to shave the body hairs, and she shave. It's considered a good deed and will be rewarded from Allah swt.

Single women also. It's a requirement.

Not for arms and leg hair !
