Subhanna Allah brother!

You have to trust Allah (Subhana huw Wata3ala). Allah says in the Quran:

''Wa Tawakul 3ala Allah, Wa Kafa Bilahi Wakeela"

He also says:

"If you will be ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you in the day of resurection"

They can't do you no harm. And if they do, Allah is only testing you!

Ghair Insha Allah
Wassalamo Aleikom

Masha Allah, many brothers and sisters have the proper looks! Next step: Jihaadu Nafs for us all!!!

Me myself, i wear a full gimar, jilbaab Alhamdolilah. Thatwas also my fist step beginning to practise my faith!

7ayaakomo Allah

Wassalam

[SirZubair]

Asalam alaikum,

"If you will be ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you in the day of resurection"

Who said i was ashamed? I simply want a trip which is hassle free. The last time i traveled, 3 years ago, i got stopped and searched in 4 airports within 24 hours.

They can't do you no harm. And if they do, Allah is only testing you!

I don't fear men, i simply don't want to waste my time answering their questions for hours, and i don't want them to make a mess of my luggage again.

I've still got a patch of Hair on my chin, which is the least requirement according to the Hanifi School of Thought.

thats out of order though, just coz u have a beard, dey stop u? :-S

why should u shave of ur beard for THEM?

[SirZubair]

Asalam Alaikum,

Just thought i'd share a word of advise before i logged off.

I am not speaking against the beard,..Keeping a beard is Sunnah, allhumdulilah. But muslims have to quit this Romance they have with their beards. I know far too many muslims who would happily call another muslim a 'kaffir' or 'sell out' if the other Muslim is clean shaven.

A beard is not what makes one a Muslim. If it did, the George Lucus, Santa Claus, Billy the goat are all muslims.

But as we all know, that, in reality, is not the case.

Once again, i am not speaking against the beard, i am speaking against people who see a beard as something which seperates a Muslim from a Non-muslim.

Wa'salaam

Asalam alaikum,

Heres the funny thing,... when i traveled TO england, i was clean shaven. I had no problems.

On the way back, i had a beard, and i had a 'tope'/cap on, and i got stopped in 4 airports and got searched/interregated.

Now why do you think i shaved for 'them'?

Read my posts again. You seem to be missing the point.

Although I agree with you on the point, that merely having a beard does not make someone a great Muslim, the beard IS however not just Sunnah. It is Waajib, as the hadith pertaining to the beard are commands from the Prophet ordering us to lengthen the beard, and to shave is Haraam. The majority of Scholars hold this view.

I know your not ashamed, i mean that nobody has to keep you from practising you faith. This is the most important thing.

And i know about the airports. But you know, wheter you become like them or not! They will never accept you. Also brothers with no beard are searched and asked. As soon as they see an Arab, it's a terrorist! And the Prophet (May the peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him) sayd this also. THEY will never accept you.

I don't know about the beard issue. I do not follow the Hanifi school (only). I follow the strongest opinion. And that is, let your beard grow and cut you mustage.

Wa Allahu a3lem.

But, i know what you mean about luggage and stuff. But you have to see what people did to our Prophet (May the peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him).

Ghair Insha Allah.It is just a naseeha..

Yes, it is haram. But keep in mind, like i said, according to the Hanifi madhab, a Patch of hair on ones CHIN is the LEAST requirement. If one does grow a patch of hair on their chin, one is not living in Sin. Now, if i had COMPLETELY shaven my beard, then yes, i would be living in sin.

Wa'salaam
