Mocking beards and shortening garments, and the excuse of ignorance

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The hadith of the man who denied. These images that mock beards or shortening garments? Is this...

The Shaykh:
The ruling on this may be hidden from some people.

The questioner:
By the ruling of growing the beard, you kill the wolves.

The Shaykh:
It may be hidden from them.

The questioner:
A person who lived between, meaning, Muslim parents on the fitrah (the innate natural disposition).

The Shaykh:
The obligation of this thing may be hidden from them; they consider it a sunnah (recommended practice). But mocking, even the sunnah, if it becomes explicit mocking, even of the sunnah, if one mocks the voluntary prayers, he is a disbeliever, or if he mocks the pillars of the voluntary prayer, he is a disbeliever. We ask Allah for safety.

The questioner:
Yes, indeed.

The Shaykh:
Or the voluntary Hajj. Yes.

The questioner:
The hadith of the man who denied the power of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).

The Shaykh:
This is my age, from a grasp of worship, something subtle: he denied that Allah has power over him if He burns him, grinds him, and throws him in the sea in the afternoon.

The questioner:
Apparent.

The Shaykh:
Except that this thing, this subtle power, may be sufficient for him.

The questioner:
Denying some of the collective obligations (fard kifayah).

The Shaykh:
So it may be hidden, there is no doubt.
