Q130: Beard hair falling off

Question

Salaams,

My beard hair is falling off. Is there anything according to Shariah that I could do to stop it? Also at the moment I have a sunnat beard but if it all falls off will I be excused?

Answer

I don’t know how to stop it – When it falls off due to illness, you will definitely be excused, also, you will be rewarded for your intention to keep it.

See a Hakim for some medicine. Phone Hakim Umar Siddiqi on 0091261 2433177. He is in India – They are 5 1/2 hours ahead of us.
