The Ruling on Trimming the Beard to Avoid the Harm of Those Who Wear Beards
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you and forgive you. The questioner says: We were forced to travel to the Levant for medical treatment, and due to recent events, we face severe difficulties at the borders because we wear beards. Is it permissible for me to trim my beard to avoid their harm? Please advise us. May Allah reward you.
Answer:
Disobedience is never permissible, disobedience is never permissible, it is not permissible for you to do this by choice, this is disobedience, there is no obedience to a creation in disobedience to the Creator, so if they force you to commit disobedience, do not go to them, do not seek their permission, go to a place other than theirs, yes.
