Top 10 excuses by men who don't keep the beard


10. Still finding the right style - There are so many different types of beards, and I'm still looking for the one that will depict my personality and my love for the deen the best.


9. I'm too young - Beards are for old fogies. I'm young and want to enjoy my time. I'll keep a beard when i'm slightly older.


8. It doesn't suit me. - I have a round face and if I keep a beard it will make me look like a clown


7. Takes too much time to maintain a beard - Shaving only takes 10 seconds. swish, swosh, wash. Beards take too much time to maintain, trim here, trim there, make sure it doesn't grow up to my eyes, and then comb it all the time


6. People with beards are backwards - Muslims who keep beards burp during prayer, do this, do that. In general they have attrocious manners and I don't want to be associated with them in anyway


5. Its not Fardh to keep a beard - Its Wajib/Sunnah/Nafl (delete as appropriate to your madhab) not Fardh. So basically there is choice and I choose not to keep a beard. Period


4. My wife/fiancee doesn't like it - She just doesn't like it. Women!! Can't live with them, can't live without them


3. Judge not by appearance - Keeping a beard doesn't make me a good Muslim. Iman is in the heart and I don't need to prove my Iman to anyone. I'm improving my inner self first. So what if i don't have beard on the outside... as long as I got it in my heart!


2. Now is not the right time - I'm waiting to get a promotion. I'm waiting for a job interview. I have to meet a few very important clients. Basically delaying till you have gone past a career milestone.


1. People will mistake me for a terrorist - The idea here being that the brother will get stick for keeping a beard because people will identify him as someone who supports terrorism. If the brother didn't keep a beard pre 9/11 and keeps one now people will think that he has been spending too much time with radical Muslims.

this is just ridiculous.. its sad that a religion has decreased to this... God save his religion, because we clearly are incapable of doing so..

One of the top excuses not to keep beard is:

My action are not perfect.

Like people have told me that they are punctual in salah, read quran, fast in ramzan etc. yet they don't keep beard because they watch movies, sometime listen music, mix with genders in function and they very well know that these are not allowed still they do this. That is why they don't keep beard.

 I would say to them that thats more or less a definition of a disbeliever or a Munafiq!
