Cycling
Question
I am an active cyclist. Crashes are often and we tend to get a lot of cuts and bruises on our body which causes our hair to get stuck to it and infect it. Is it permissible for a man to remove his legs and arm hair in this situation?
Answer
Rather leave out the cycling.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
