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?**
