Ibn 'Umar Trimming His Beard During Hajj
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it true that 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar interpreted the ruling and trimmed his beard during Hajj?
Answer:
Yes, it is reported from Ibn 'Umar that he used to trim his beard after performing the rites, along with shaving his head. This was his independent legal reasoning (may Allah be pleased with him). This was his independent legal reasoning. It was not practiced by those better than him. It was not practiced by his father, who was better than him. And it was not practiced by the senior Companions (may Allah be pleased with them). So this was the independent legal reasoning of Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), but it is not agreed upon. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded letting the beard grow and honoring it. In Hajj, what is prescribed is shaving the head or shortening the hair. "Shaving your heads and shortening them."
This is in terms of opinion. As for taking what exceeds a handful from the beard, as was reported, this is from Ibn 'Umar. This is his independent legal reasoning, and it is not agreed upon. Because if the independent legal reasoning of a Companion contradicts the text, the text is followed. And what is prescribed to be removed after entering the state of ihram is the untidiness, which is the nails, the mustache, the armpits, the pubic hair, and removing dirt and sweat. This is the untidiness that Allah prescribed to be removed after completing the rites for the sake of cleanliness. Yes.
