Daily Islamic Stories® Blackberry Messenger Groups The Beard Shaving the beard results in a series of Islamic violations, among which are the following: 1. Disobedience to اَللَّه سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَال Shaving the beard is an act of disobedience to اَللَّه سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَال , as is expressed in the words of His Messenger (sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam), Abu Hurayrah Radi-Allahu anhu reported that the ruler of Yemen, appointed by the Persian emperor Kisra, sent two envoys to the Messenger (sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam). When they came into his presence, he noticed that they had shaved their beards and let their moustaches grow big. Hating their ugly appearance, he turned his face away and said, “Woe be to you, who told you to do so?” They replied: “Our lord (Kisra) did!” The Messenger (sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam) responded: “But my Lord, exalted and glorified be He, has commanded me to spare my beard and trim my moustaches.” [Recorded by Ibn Jarir at-Tabari, Ibn Sa’d, and Ibn Bishran. Verified to be hasan (good) by al-Albani (Fiqh us-Sirah by al-Ghazali p. 359)] Though one knows not of death, Ramazan is the perfect time for you to make your niyyat of growing your beard. Remember- life is too short to delay matters. May اَللَّه سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَال make it easy for us. آمين ----------
