2) Similarly, I would like to know whether it is allowed for women to cut hair from following positions:

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

It is permissible for both, men and women to remove their hair from the legs, thighs, and chest, but it is undesirable for them to do so.
