Growing the beard is wajib (mandatory) for all males who are capable of doing so. As will be presented below, there is ample evidence for this in the Sunnah, and it is the unanimous opinion of the ‘ulama’ of Islam.

Shaving the beard is an act of disobedience to the Messenger (pbuh) who commanded the men to spare their beards in many hadiths. Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) reported that Allah's Messenger (pbuh) said:

“Closely trim the moustaches, and spare the beard.”
[Al-Bukhari, Muslim and others].

Obeying the Messenger is equivalent to obeying Allah:

“He who obeys the Messenger has obeyed Allah; and
as for those who turn away: We have not sent you as a
guardian over them.”

[An-Nisa 4:80]
