Five Things From The Fitrah
On the authority of Abu Hurairah (radiAllaahu ‘anhu), the messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu ‘Alaihi wa Sallam) said: “There are five things from the fitrah: using metal (blade for removing the pubic hair), circumcision, trimming the mustache, plucking the armpit hair, and cutting the nails” [Bukhari, 5509]

what exactly does the word fitrah mean??
Linguistically it means an inborn natural disposition.
The term fitrah literally means, creation; the causing a thing to exist for the first time; and the natural constitution with which a child is created in his mother’s womb.
