The Ruling on Shaving the Beard or Trimming It

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih, may Allah preserve you and bless you. The listener, Hail Mas'ud Muhammad al-Ghazi, asks: What is the ruling on shaving the beard or trimming it?

Answer:
It is not permissible, neither to shave it nor to trim it. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Trim the mustache and let the beard grow.احفوا الشوارب واعفوا اللحى
Sunan an-Nasa'i 15Sahih (Darussalam)
You must let the beard grow and not touch it by plucking, cutting, or shaving. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence the Shaykh
