There's a question, can Hanafi with with

00:00:04 --> 00:00:06

bad beard jeans follow the Shafi'i position

00:00:07 --> 00:00:09

on beards especially with respect

00:00:10 --> 00:00:12

when people make fun of them? One can

00:00:12 --> 00:00:14

clean up one's beard and, you know, trim

00:00:14 --> 00:00:16

it from the sides, whatever, so it looks

00:00:16 --> 00:00:17

dignified.

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

But even the chafes,

00:00:20 --> 00:00:23

you know, shaving the beard is either prohibited

00:00:23 --> 00:00:24

or blameworthy

00:00:25 --> 00:00:28

across the schools. The chafes opinion is not

00:00:28 --> 00:00:29

that of prohibition,

00:00:29 --> 00:00:30

but it's

00:00:30 --> 00:00:32

still blameworthy and unbecoming

00:00:33 --> 00:00:35

a male Muslim to to fully

00:00:36 --> 00:00:38

shave their beard. There's an excellent

00:00:38 --> 00:00:42

article by Sheikh Noor Keller on keeping the

00:00:42 --> 00:00:42

beard

00:00:43 --> 00:00:45

and guidance related to that, I would recommend

00:00:45 --> 00:00:48

that you seek that out. Sheikh Noor Keller,

00:00:48 --> 00:00:51

on on the beard. It's a it's an

00:00:51 --> 00:00:53

excellent article by one of the truly distinguished

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

scholars of our times.
