The Shaykh : I do not see anything but a stubble.
The student: Hehehe.
The questioner : I want to shave the beard, what is the solution, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you.
The questioner : May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh : Do you want to shave it?
The questioner : Because my photo in the passport originally has no beard.
