Shaving is haram. As regards to the length, that is debated. But it is considered keeping a fistfull is sunnah as the companion Hazrat Umar (ra) used to hold his beard in his hand and cut the remaining.
Different Madhabs have different views but they all consider a handful to be the sunnah.

Why do you want to know?
Girls don't have to keep beards. :?
I IS NEVER GONNA HAVE ONE!
What you put in the hearts of others; is what goes back into your own heart…
maybe she needs advice for family or a friend or maybe just general knowledge :roll:
Never thought of that. :?

Lol...I too hate the tash without the beard-its horrible.
But a guy with a beard always looks good.
Have you noticed that a beard even makes an average looking guy seem even more good looking?

My Dad always tells me never trust anyone with a beard.
He'll freak if I keep one.
Just keep it neat and tidy and you'll be OK.
I'm sure theres non-Muslim lawyers and even judges with beards.
Lol..my gran says that too.
She think the longer the beard the more dodgy the geezer. She also feels the same way about women in Niqab...
By the way, if guys don't want to/can't keep a beard...they can keep a shadow on their face at all time-can't they?
why do parents do that?
shouldnt they encourage you?

When I havn't shaved for a few days Mum tells me either shave or keep it. But Dad always always gets shocked and says 'shave now, don't go keeping a beard'.
As long you don't have one of these you'll be fine.

they most certainly do but only the nice neat ones not the ones spread all over the face
I agree.
For a beard to look good, it must be neat and tidy.
I was reading "The twits" to my baby sister the other day..(the book by Road Dahl).
He was proper cussing the beard...I hadnt noticed this bit when I first read the book as a child.
"Mr Twit is scruffy looking with a big, big beard" (Its obvious Mr Dahl was anti-beard). He says that it is impossible to tell what a man with a hairy beard looks like, or perhaps he would rather you did not know.
There a bit in the book which goes...."Mr Twit never went really hungry. By sticking out his tongue and curling is sideways to explore the hairy jungle around his mouth, he was always able to find a tasty morsel here and there to nibble on".
hahha....i remember that!!
aah the good old days :roll:

But Mr Twit did have an ugly, unruly beard though

he dont have to keep a beard if he feels he aint ready
but he should at least keep a shadow on his face
