The Importance of Growing a Beard

SUMMARY: Growing a beard is encouraged, except when performing Hajj or Umrah.

Narrated Jabir: We used to grow beard long except during the Hajj or 'Umrah. Abu Dawud said: Istihdad means to shave the pubes.
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُفَيْلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، قَرَأْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ وَقَرَأَهُ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ عَلَى أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ وَرَوَاهُ أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ كُنَّا نُعْفِي السِّبَالَ إِلاَّ فِي حَجٍّ أَوْ عُمْرَةٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ الاِسْتِحْدَادُ حَلْقُ الْعَانَةِ
