On wearing a beard or, more appropriately, On some Muslims' beard complex
The Discourse
Adil Salahi - Arab News
The question of wearing a beard is based on a different Hadith which quotes the Prophet as saying, “Adopt a way different from that of the Jews: Trim your mustaches and leave your beards.” This is an authentic Hadith, but scholars differ as to whether the order given is one of obligation or recommendation. When we take a broad view of what the Prophet’s companions did and what scholars say, weighing up the evidence in support of the different views, we will come to the conclusion that the order in this Hadith is one of recommendation.
