What is the ruling on taking from the beard?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: What is the ruling on trimming the width and length of the beard, and on the cheeks and neck?

Answer:
If you trim its width and length, you have trimmed it all. Does the beard weigh you down, or does it disfigure your face? The beard, praise be to Allah, is beauty for men and a distinction between the man and the woman. It is a blessing from Allah upon you, so may Allah beautify you. Do not restrict it, nor trim it from here and here, and do not narrow it. Yes.
