The ruling on one who shaves his beard believing that it is not among the legislations of Islam

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if the one who shaves his beard believes that it is not among the obligatory legislations of Islam, what is the ruling?

Answer:
This does not depend on the person's belief or his suspicion; it depends on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). It is obligatory for the Muslim to comply with the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and not to rely on what he believes or suspects.
