Question:
Is it permissible to trim the beard, shorten it, and define its shape?
Answer:
It is not permissible to mess with the beard. It is not permissible. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded that the beard be honored, grown, left long, let down, and allowed to hang freely. It is not permissible to subject it to cutting, plucking, or shaving. All of this is not permissible; it is disobedience, because it conflicts with leaving it long, honoring it, and letting it hang freely. Yes.
