First of all we must examine very important verses said by God himself in the Quran.
"Say: "If ye do love Allah, Follow me: Allah will love you and forgive you your sins: For Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (Quran 3:31)
"O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger, and those charged with authority among you." (Quran 4:59)
"O ye who believe! Obey Allah and His Messenger, and turn not away from him when ye hear (him speak)." (Quran 8:20)
Now tell me, do you love Allah? DO you want to gain paradise and have your sins forgiven? Then follow Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) How do you follow Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) ? Please read further.
Importance of the Beard in the words of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam):
(1) Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said "I have no connection iwth one who shaves, shouts and tears his clothing eg. in grief or affication."
- Reported by Abu Darda (R.A.) in Muslim, Hadith no. 501
(2) The teachings of Hadhrat Ammar Bin Yaasir, Abdullah Ibn Umar, Sayyidina Umar, Abu Hurairah and Jaabir (R.A.), indicate that ALL used to keep beards that were one fist length or more. Hadhrat Jaabir (R.A.) had said: "We used to grow long beards and only during Hajj and Umrah did we trim them to the required length (i.e. fist length)."
(3) Hadhrat Abdullah Ibn Umar (R.A.) relates that: "He who imitates the kuffar (non-believers) and dies in that state, he will be raised up with them on the Day of Qiyamat (Judgement)."
(4) Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) says: "Trim closely the moustache, and let the beard flow (Grow)."
- Narrated Ibn Umar (R.A.) in Muslim, Hadith no. 498
As seen in all of these verses & Hadith, keeping a beard is very important. If you love Allah, follow Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam).
The Prophet came as a role model and a living example of how all muslims should be, dress, and behave. Not keeping a beard is rejecting the way of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam), and that certainly does not please Allah!
May Allah guide you to the right path and keep you away from evil filth and Shaytaan who tell you to not keep beard!
