Attaching Artificial Beards in Theatres

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Some school theatres and stages have people attach some artificial beards. Is this considered attaching hair?
If the question were not this,As if we were to say: but rather whether this is considered mocking the beard, that would be close. As for attaching hair, it is not his hair; he only puts it on during the play. But is it fitting to do this? I think it is better to leave this off, and that this leads to the audience, or some of them, mocking those who have beards.

Moreover, the original issue of acting is a matter of dispute among the scholars of this age: Is it permissible or not? One person acts as another and brings a wig of hair and puts it on like this; there is a kind of mockery in it.
