Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani
Concerning the issue of the beard, given that for Hanafis the minimum length should be a fist full, if a person trims the beard less than this, is he sinful when committing the act of trimming the beard or are they sinful at all times after the act of trimming until the beard reaches a fist length?
Wa Alaykum Assalam wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuhu,
