Question:
Dear Sayydi,
May Allah bless you, Shaykh Adnan and Maulana Shaykh Nazim, and Shaykh Memet and the rest of your families.
We refer to the Quran verse 4:59 Obey Allah, Obey Prophet and those in authority among you.
We are in a delima that our parents are asking to shave our beard and to remove our cap. . We are trying out best to up keep the tradition of our beloved Prophet Muhammad S.A.W because of the love of him. The reason of they doing so is because we are in a family business but our principle (Supplier) is non muslim and they are afraid that the business will not prosper.
Please pray for us and please advice us of the best option.
Answer:
wa ‘alaykum salam,
I will pray for you. Many of Mawlana’s mureeds around the world they don’t have beard or hat due to their circumstances. So do what is best for you.
Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani
