2757. Āishah narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Ten are from the Fiṭrah: Paring the moustache, leaving the beard to grow, Siwāk, cleaning the nose with water, paring the fingernails, washing the knuckles, plucking the underarm hair, shaving the pubic hairs, and Intiqāṣ with water." (Sahīh) Zakariyyā said: "Muṣ'ab said: 'I forgot if the tenth is washing out the mouth.'" There are narrations on this topic from 'Ammār bin Yāsir, Ibn 'Umar, [and Abū Hurairah]. Abū 'Eisā said: This Hadīth is Hasan. Abū 'Eisā said: Intiqāṣ with water means using water for Istinjā'.

٢٧٥٧ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ ‌وَهَنَّادٌ، قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا ‌وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ ‌زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ ، عَنْ ‌مُصْعَبِ بْنِ شَيْبَةَ، عَنْ ‌طَلْقِ بْنِ حَبِيبٍ ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ ‌عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «عَشْرٌ مِنَ الْفِطْرَةِ»؛ قَصُّ الشَّارِبِ، وَإِعْفَاءُ اللِّحْيَةِ، وَالسِّوَاكُ، وَالِاسْتِنْشَاقُ، وَقَصُّ الْأَظْفَارِ، وَغَسْلُ الْبَرَاجِمِ، وَنَتْفُ الْإِبْطِ، وَحَلْقُ الْعَانَةِ، وَانْتِقَاصُ الْمَاءِ. قَالَ زَكَرِيَّا: قَالَ مُصْعَبٌ: وَنَسِيتُ الْعَاشِرَةَ، إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونَ الْمَضْمَضَةَ. قَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ: انْتِقَاصُ الْمَاءِ: الِاسْتِنْجَاءُ بِالْمَاءِ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ، وَابْنِ عُمَرَ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ.

Commentary

According to the abovementioned Hadīth, the tenth tradition is to circumcise; to remove the hair under the armpit may be through any method, but plucking or pulling out is preferred. The real aim is to remove the hair which may be achieved through any other method.
