Priorities...what comes first? Are keeping beards as important as stopping money lending and charging Interest? What should Muslims be talking about and changing about the world first? Beards? Banking? Interest? Feeding the poor? What does Allah value more?

@njalil Brother/Sister, you are a very insightful and thoughtful person for this comment. I have also shared this same idea with somebody before that given the fact that his biological beard is maybe not as rich as some people that maybe the Sheikh has decided to remove it in order to have a cleaner and even look. In any case all of the ignorant people who want to reduce a muslim down to their beard are lacking great wisdom. May Allah increase all of us in wisdom

@bigbadal22 If you notice some of Hamza Yusuf's earlier lectures he has a scruffy (almost non-existent) beard on the sides of his chin. My understanding is because of his biological make-up, he can not keep a full beard. Allah gives the ability to some, and not to others. I pray that criticism of Sheikh Yusuf's beard isn't in our misunderstood way a mockery of the blessings that Allah has not given (or given) Sheikh Yusuf, or anyone else for that matter. What is in the heart only Allah knows.

@sanscab The Muqaddimah - By Ibn Khaldun (Translated by Franz Rosenthal). Is that the one you were asking for?

I see that he has a beard. And the beard is part of the people that follow the prophet's sunnah. And it is a sunnah wadjibah (compulsory, see the works of Sheikh Al-Albani). As for how the beard grows or doesn't grow, depends on the background and or biological make up of a person; as is also the case with imam Hamza. The beard is important people, but let us not have to many prejudices. There are a lot of good people that don't have (big) beards. But we should try not to sin.

shaikh Hamza talk about a book about education, does anyone have the name of the author or the title of the book? if so would u please let me know!
-
@1202388 yes i know that, but i was just making a point. The outer image of a muslim is easy to keep, but the inner behavior is much more difficult and shaikh hamza demonstrates them, as far as i am aware.

@bilal11ashraf shaikh hamza tryed but cant grow a proper beard. thats why he only has a go-t. he himself says its waajib
-
He HAS a beard. In every picture of him from young to present his beard has been consistent. Meaning he does NOT grow hair on the side but only the chin....
Its a beard and many fuqaha say beard on the chin (bone line) is fine.

@bigbadal22 Cant we ever just take what's beneficial and leave the criticism? SubhanAllah. You mean to tell me that from everything that was just said, you only got from that talking about his beard? Advice to all Muslims, take what's good and keep silent about that which you do not agree.
My hero.
