Tried to keep a goatee, but I'm not great at it so now I have stubble and soul patch. I'll work on the goatee soon though.Well beards are for men, not for boys. If you were a real man, then you would have the patience to grow one.
If you have the ability to grow one then you should. It's growing for a reason. It won't look odd if you groom it well. Some people just need more grooming then others.
Yea bro beards are awesomeWell kept beards are the way forward. I look 19 when I shave :/ I have supported a beard for a few months and love it. Takes like 5 minutes in the morrning to clean it and then I am ready to go
Personally, I look good in a beard, well, a lot more masculine. It helps my beard being a little brown/ gingerish as it looks quite cool.
True, but it shouldn't be only for fashion. It's a part of life.Beards are in big time these days. Messi has one, Misbah has one, Thor has one, looks like so does Aquaman, kohli, and most NBA, NFLers do too. Trump and Kim Jong Un are two well known clean shaven men these days, if that doesn't convince you to grow a beard I dont know what will
I thought this thread would be about Moeen
I'm afraid you're wrong. Beards are not a trend. We have been growing them since the beginning of time. And they will continue to grow until some nerd comes along with his "next generation" technology.
Yea I will stick with that Azhar Ali type length until I am in my 30s
Yea I will stick with that Azhar Ali type length until I am in my 30s
Then I will go full Moeen Ali
That's the best age. The peak of manhood. 35-45. Around that time.
I say grow it long.
or but I do keep it and trim it every once in a while, it's more along the lines of Imad Wasim and Rizwan. Never been clean shaven in my life.
Beard for me is a religious Islamic symbol and a dear Sunnat. So there are some Ahadees which U need to dig, they say that He Pbuh had small sized beard until 40-50 And than post 55 He Pbuh grew a long one but it was properly shaped unlike today's most Mullah's (Ulema e Soo) wehshee wild unshaped uncultured beard which defames Islamic symbol.
I approve Afridi's beard. For me it's halaal, justified and looks good aswell. I don't consider it unislamic.
For me beard small or long should be kept as per neeyat of Sunnat and not for fashion.
Fawad & Hamza's beard looked good but Hamza shouldn't have opted for unshaped cheeks but Hamza's Mustaches & koochee stole the show indeed.
Danish Taimoor's moustaches and beard are quite decent aswell. Suits him.
So if I am you I will go for Afridi, Fawad or Danish esque beard but permanent one with Neeyat.
But it's entirely upto you.
When I was 17-18 I opted for Jaw line for few months. My Conscience told me it has nothing to do with Islam so I grew a cultured shared 1.5 to 2.0 mm beard from there on Alhamdoulillah with a neeyat of keeping beard lifelong and I stuck with it. I do not rule out growing it longer when I get old but it would be like Misbah when he had kept beard for 2 months. Not beyond that ever. He grew it further.
That's my way. It's your life dear brother and you are free to do anything. Do what you thin.is right and what you like. Men facial hair has value and I carry them with pride
Yaar I still can't connect mustache and beard.
May Allah give you the strength
Even if you grow it further when you grow old make sure you trim and shape it properly to look elegant and not Wild as like Ulema e Soo (most)
May Allah lead you to a healthy successful righteous long life. Aameen.
if u keep it in good shape and order and not too long they will never do it to you.On the other hand, my parents were threatening me to bleach it out if I didn't shaved it back. Thankfully they're getting used to it now
Also, I was really thinking about giving it up when a 'thulla' (police man) stopped our car (was going with friends) and checked me (only me despite 3-4 people being inside the same car) because I had slightly molvi-like beard.
