Tafath in Arabic is filth and dirt. In Hajj, Tafath means plucking out one’s hair and clipping the nails, as an act of ending one’s Ihraam. In the Quran, Allah The Almighty Says (what means): {Then let them end their (Tafath) untidiness and fulfill their vows.} [Quran 22:29] meaning let them fulfill their needs of shaving and cleaning. Thus, Tafath is what the pilgrim does after he ends his Ihraam, such as clipping the moustache and nails, plucking armpit hair, shaving pubic hair and other acts that a person in the state of Ihraam is not permitted to do.
