Evidence That An Appearance Of A Long Mustache And Short Beard Is Arrogant?
The message seems to be that anything, sign, symbol or act that exhibits arrogance is against the teachings of Islam; whether it is dress, gold, mustache or just a manner of walking or talking. With the passage of time and in various cultures the signs, symbols and acts of arrogance may be different and thus prohibited accordingly. On the matter of beard, I do not find anything in Quran about keeping a beard, so it can’t be fard. I still wonder how beard can be Fard when most of the people 1400 years ago, including Kuffars, had beard. I guess, it was just not convenient to shave every morning at that time.
