Question:
I am a university student memorizing the Noble Qur'an, praise be to Allah, but I shave my beard because it is one of the Sunnahs. What is the ruling on my action? Is shaving the beard one of the major sins? Is shortening it a sin?
Answer:
Answer: Praise be to Allah. You have recognized the truth, and you are one of the bearers of the Qur'an. It is obligatory for you to let your beard grow, repent to Allah, and seek forgiveness for what has occurred. Whoever repents, Allah accepts his repentance.
