Mocking the Beard is a Great Sin

Question :

What is the ruling on praying behind a person who shaves his beard and even makes fun of those who let it grow, and he orders them to shave it?

Answer:

All praise is for Allâh alone, and may He send peace and A blessings upon His Messenger, His Messenger's family. and His Messenger's Companions.

It is not allowed to make fun of a person who grows his beard, because growing it is only obedience to the order of Allah's Messenger . You should advise the mocker, explaining to him that by making fun of the beard, he may not only be committing a major sin but he also may be committing an act of apostasy.

Allah Almighty says:
"Say: Was it at Allah Almighty, and His Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations etc.) and His Messenger ﷺ that you were mocking? Make no excuse; you have disbelieved after you had believed".

And Allah is the Granter of success. May Allah send peace and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
