[Machine] He heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "O Allah, forgive the ones who shave their heads, O Allah, forgive the ones who shave their heads." A man from the people asked, "And what about the ones who trim their hair and do not completely shave it off?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "In the third or fourth category are those who trim their hair and do not completely shave it off," and then he said, "And I, on that day, will be a person who has completely shaved his head, so what pleases me with my head being shaved is the redness of grace or a great reward."
