Shaving the Beard: Between Major and Minor Sins
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is shaving the beard considered a major sin or a minor sin?
Answer:
The default is that it is a minor sin, but if a person becomes indifferent and openly displays it, it becomes a major sin. Openly committing a sin and persisting in it turns it from a minor sin into a major sin. Yes.
