The Ruling on Shaving the Beard

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is shaving the beard considered among the minor sins or among the major sins?

Answer:
The default ruling is that it is among the minor sins, but if a person becomes indifferent to it and commits it openly, it becomes a major sin. Openly committing a sin and persisting in it turns it from a minor sin into a major sin.
