Virtues of Growing the Beard

ti just wanted to say for the record, in general, we dont grow our beards, lol...it grows naturally by ALLAH(swt), he(swt) created us like this....

so we dont grow our beards, rather we have to stop CUTTING THEM OFF...

wasalam
 
akhee islam-truth... i asked a knowledgable brother who runs this islamic course about your question. He will answer it on friday insha-Allah. I hope i can be of help.

A lot of bro's from certain parts of the world try to grow beards but they can't, so they resort to shaving. The prophet SAW never shaved in his whole life, bnot once, nor did the young sahaabah growing up during the time of Islam. My friends from Malysia for example often get down when their beards don't grow, but we should remember it is the intention that is important. I can't remember the name of the sahaabi, but he would try to grow his beard but he could only ever muster 3 hairs! Subhanallah, but his intention was one of a full beard, and for that reason alone Angels would visit him and do tawaaf around his 3 hairs on his face, subhanallah!

So we shoudl remember even if due to mother nature or whatever if our beards do not grow, we should not shave to make them grow faster as some bros do, rather we should let them grow slowly, as this way not only will our beards eventually look nicer as they wont be thick from constant shaving, but we are being patient for the sake of allah
 
my husband asked this question n no ur not allowed to shave it just to make it grow longer, u just gotta leave it.

N yea theres a hadith about how the prophet sorta laughed at this paticular sahaba who only had three hairs as a beard n he got vexed n sed why u laughin at me n he goes that the angels were playing with ur beard awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww how sweet, can u imagine bless mashallah subhanallah thats just cute man.

Yes beards can be a bit itchy sometimes like one of the sisters sed, if ur married dnt forget to use ur wifes conditioner itll make it nice n soft n wnt scratch her face everytime u approach her. but it still does tickle. my husband loves his beard, its his pride n glory, he gets so vexed wen i yank it but doesnt mind so much wen i put my sweet wrappers in it. altho its annoying cuz wen hes done wudhu he comes up to me saying "soggy beard soggy beard" n wets my face with it grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr annoying. i like picking bits of food out of it wen hes eating. bless. Mashallah beards are great.
 
Masha'allah i have beard..

Thought of having a beard...

Insha'allah ..i will have a big beard..(one fist long)...soon

If anyone tells you not to grow a beard its bad on them but in some cases men cant grow a beard like in certian work places atc or here in canada you can but depending on the area your in you may get alot of stares.

but i think its up to the man to choose either way or decide when to gorw a beard, no one elses choise not mother or wife or brother. etc.
