There is a report from Saeed bin ibn al-Musayyub in Malik's Muwatta that states the following:-
> Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Said ibn
> al-Musayyub said, **"Ibrahim, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
> was the first to give hospitality to the guest and the first person to
> be circumcised and the first person to trim the moustache and the
> first person to see grey hair.** He said, 'O Lord! What is this?'
> Allah the Blessed, the Exalted, said, 'It is dignity, Ibrahim.' He
> said, 'Lord, increase me in dignity!' "
>
> Yahya said that he had heard Malik say, "One takes from the moustache
> until the edge of the lip appears, that is the rim. One does not cut
> if off completely so that one mutilates oneself." - [Muwatta Malik, Book
> 49, Hadith 1677](https://sunnah.com/urn/516560)
**Can someone please explain me the highlighted part of this narration?**
