Hadith for Beards

Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by SunniPath Answer Service Team

Currently I am a high school student and my school’s dress code requires males to be clean-shaven. I have told my school that I cannot do this because of religious reasons, and so finally they agreed that they would review the issue if I presented them with proper evidence from holy texts that would justify the need for a beard. I would appreciate it to the utmost degree if you would please tell me some locations in Hadith where the need for a beard is expressed (since I am pretty sure there is no mention of beards in the Quran itself).

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

In the name of Allah, the most Merciful, the most Compassionate.

These questions came to light after discussing them with ulema, who advise me to put forward these questions to Mufti Taqi Usmani sahib and inform them of the view of our beloved Mufti Sahib.1. In England to have car insurance is compulsory. Talking to ulema, they state that third party only is allowed. However discussing this with my friend, who is also an aalim, we wanted to know what if full comprehensive insurance is cheaper than third party insurance e.g. full comprehensive was £600.00 and third party was £1000.00, which happens sometimes. So even in this case would one have to buy third party Insurance or not? 2. When a person has an accident with another car, the insurance company of the other car owner pays a person out fully. The money that they pay is the market value of the car and not the actual value. For example I recently had an accident, the insurance company of the other person paid me out £2100.00 whereas I bought my car for the price of £1600.00. So would the extra money received in this case be jaa’iz (permissible) or haraam? Also I have heard that you cannot claim more than the amount you have paid to the insurance company. In case if the other person is not insured then my own company will pay me out. Would this money also be jaaiz? [Sajid Khan]
