What about removing of unwanted hair surrounding anal? Which portion i have to remaove and how long duration required for next?

Answer

The area immediately under the navel is not to be shaven.

The area of shaving for a person (male / female) is above and around the private parts. If possible, it is commendable to shave around the hind private parts as well. (Al-Kaamil, commentary of Muslim; Imaam Nawawi vol. 1 pg. 128).
