Is there a Quran verse for that ? I don't have a beard and I am among the ultimate that Islam desires for a Muslim, thank you. That "Sunnah beard" is most likely a combination of non-Islamic Jewish appearance, Christian appearance, other West Asian appearance and Greek appearance that was ascribed to Hazrat Muhammad by Bukhari living more than a 100 years after him. You are just being a ritualist. Check if these revolutionary modern Muslims ( a Muslim should be revolutionary ) had beards : Shaukat Usmani, Jamal Abdul Nasser, Muammar Gaddafi, Hafiz al Assad, Faiz Ahmed Faiz.
Just because you don't want it doesn't mean it is non-existent in Islam. Hadith is narrated by Hazrat Ayesha RA and Hazrat Abu Hurraraih RA in Sahi Muslim. There is another Hadith in Sahi Bukhari narrated by Ibn Umar. And please don't reply if you doesn't believe in Hadith. I can't force you.
1. Narrated Nafi’: Ibn Umar said, The Prophet said, ‘Do the opposite of what the pagans do. Keep the beard s and cut the moustaches short.’ Whenever Ibn ‘Umar performed the Hajj or ‘Umra, he used to hold his beard with his hand and cut whatever moustaches. Ibn Umar used to cut his moustache so short that the whiteness of his skin (above the upper lip) was visible, and he used to cut (the hair) between his moustaches and his beard . (Bukhari Book 72 Hadith 780)
2. According to another report: ‘ Be different from the mushrikeen: cut the moustache and let the beard grow. ” Narrated by Muslim, 602.
3. And Muslim (383) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Trim the moustache and let the beard grow; be different from the Magians (Zoroastrians). ”
4. On one occasion, when the Prophet s.a.w received two of Kissra’s11 emissaries, he disliked to look at them when he saw that they were shaven and with grown
mustaches. He ρ said:
“Woe to you! Who ordered you to do this? They said: “Our Lord (meaning their
Kissra)”. The Messenger of Allaah ρ then said: “ But my Rabb (Allaah) ordered me to let my beard grow and to trim my mustache.”
The imperative wording in the Prophet’s statement indicates that it is obligatory to comply with the command, and as such, the one who complies will be rewarded and the one who does not is subject to punishment (i.e. as Allaah (Subhanahu wa taala) wishes).
5. Mother of the Believers, ‘Aisha ﺭﺿﻲ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻬﺎ , said that the Prophet s.a.w said:
“Ten are the acts of Fitrah: clipping the mustache, letting the beard grow, using as-Siwaak, snuffing up water in the nose, cutting the nails, washing the finger joints, plucking the hair under the armpits, shaving the pubes, and cleaning one’s private parts with water. The narrator said, ‘I have forgotten the tenth, but it may have been rinsing the mouth.’” { Muslim in his Saheeh, V.1, hadeeth # 502. }
The Fitrah is the state upon which the creation of Allaah’s bondsmen has been initiated. He implanted within their nature, its execution, an inclination towards it, and a tendency to like it; He brought them to dislike what contradicts it. In fact, if a man abandons the qualities of Fitrah, his feature will no longer be like that of human being,-then how should one from amongst the common people of Islam, the Deen of Fitrah, be?!
Frankly, Gorbachev was a product of the circumstances in Soviet society at that time. India is a far cry from that today. Pandits are already out and are not likely to go back. I do agree that the deployment of Indian troops in Kashmir is beneficial for the Pakistani side. But still do not think that it is sufficient to move India out of Kashmir.
