Is removing a wart with cryotherapy (using ice) included in the meaning of "they do not cauterize themselves" mentioned in the noble Hadith, and is repentance for doing so permissible if that is the case?
Removing a wart in the manner mentioned is permissible and is not considered cauterization. Cauterization by fire for treatment is not forbidden, and whoever performs it does not sin and is not required to repent.
