[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Muslim men are encouraged to have beard. Clothing wise, as long as it covered between the navel and knee, loose clothing.[/quote]

The beard is for emulating Mohammed. Who was modest, it goes without saying, but modesty isn't the first reason for the beard.[/quote]

This was a way to show off their manliness, right?

Well, some women have beards, too, you know. . . [/quote]

No, they're imitating Mohammed. Which some women can indeed do....[/quote]

I remember reading one interpretation of the beard as a representation of manliness.

[quote]The Three Aspects Regarding The Beard
 
1. The beard is a part of the male anatomy which beautifies, gives respectability and adorns the man. (That is only when it is kept in good trim).

2. The beard is a natural inherent part of the biological characteristics of the male gender of the human being, its purpose is to differentiate between the male and the female. This very conclusion is also derived by logical reasoning and intellect. We should also bear in mind that the intellect is one of the most important factors which separates the human being from the other animal species.

3. In answer to the supplication made by our grandfather Adam (as), Allah, the Blessed, the Exalted, made the growth of the beard an in-built natural feature of the male, a feature which will continue being such till the day of reckoning. [/quote]

And an attractively worn veil may actually look sexy. They key is the individuals intent. Most Muslim who wear beards dont do it to show off manliness. LOL. Its to be humble and try to follow Prophet Muhammad. [/quote]

How is wearing a beard a humble gesture?  to look like a homeless man on the street?

wtf?
