Sunan Abi Dawud 4200 (Book 35, Hadith 42) #24490
Forty Days for Grooming

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ prescribed a period of forty days for shaving the pubes, paring the nails, clipping the moustaches and plucking hair under the armpit.

Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Messenger of Allah fixed forty days to shave the pubes, paring the nails, clipping the moustaches, and plucking the hair under the armpit. Abu Dawud said: Ja'far b. Sulaiman transmitted it from Abu 'Imran on the authority of Anas. In this version he did not mention the Prophet . He said: Forty days were fixed for us. This is a more correct version.
حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ الدَّقِيقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيُّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ وَقَّتَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ حَلْقَ الْعَانَةِ وَتَقْلِيمَ الأَظْفَارِ وَقَصَّ الشَّارِبِ وَنَتْفَ الإِبْطِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا مَرَّةً ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ رَوَاهُ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ النَّبِيَّ قَالَ وُقِّتَ لَنَا وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ
