as you saw the title of this entry, what's the first thing that come up to your mind of guys keeping his beard?
ugly? old? messed up? cool? handsome?

before this questioning and answering start to take place in your mind, just let me remind and make things clear,that keeping beard is a Sunnah of our beloved prophet Muhammad peace be upon him(PBUH). we all agree that Muhammad  PBUH is the best idol, and Allah created him as a perfect humankind, not only in attitude point of view,but in all aspects, spiritual and physical. if beard is deserved and best to be trimmed, why didn't Muhammad SAW do it? instead of doing that, he did mentioned about beard in many hadiths , one of the famous that many of us had heard is from Sahih Muslim, 

"ten nature things : shortening the mustache, allow the beard to grow long, siwak, inhale water during ablution, cutting the nails, washing the al-barajim, plucking the armpit hairs, shaving the pubic hair, and CLEANSING (istinjak)"

and in another hadith, also from Sahih Muslim,

Rasulullah PBUH said : shorten the mustache, and keep the beard.

aukamqola Rasulullah PBUH

so for guys out there, keep your beautiful beard, because only by following sunnah will lead us to success.

 لَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ

Demi sesungguhnya, adalah bagi kamu pada diri Rasulullah itu contoh ikutan yang baik.
