What should one do if his father threatens to kick him out of the house if he does not shave his beard?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The Shaykh :
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : One of his sons, and this son is a committed brother... from his age, he said to him, "If you do not shave your beard, I will kick you out of the house." And this father had previously kicked out an older son of his, of course not because of the beard, but for other matters. Does this young man say, should he shave his beard in order to stay in the house and not be kicked out, or what should he do?
The Shaykh : If he is able to live away from his father, he should not obey him; otherwise, there is no power and no strength.
The questioner : May Allah reward you, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And may He reward you.
The Shaykh: Yes.
