:: Sunnah way of cutting nails ::
'A'isha reported: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: Ten are the acts according to fitra: clipping the moustache, letting the beard grow, using the tooth-stick, snuffing water in the nose, cutting the nails, washing the finger joints, plucking the hair under the armpits, shaving the pubes and cleaning one's private parts with water. The narrator said: I have forgotten the tenth, but it may have been rinsing the mouth. (Sahih Muslim Book #002, Hadith #0502)
Anas reported: A time limit has been prescribed for us for clipping the moustache, cutting the nails, plucking hair under the armpits, shaving the pubes, that it should not be neglected far more than forty nights. (Sahih Muslim Book#002, Hadith #0497)

AssalamAlaikum,
ReplyDeleteYou just reminded me to be more caution when posting articles...
Anyway, this is what I found out after reading a lot of other articles in different websites~

Basically, there is no official way of cutting nails, but as stated in the above website, explanations are given as to why the sequence... It's mustahabb~ And it sounds logical to me~ =)
JazakAllah Khair for the reminder to be careful of the source of my post~
