Beard & Haircuts
Examples of some Haraam Haircuts
One of the issues that many people, particularly the youth, have been confronted with in recent years is their insatiable desire to follow Western fashion and compete to be up-to-date with society's latest trends. They want people to notice that they are dressed in the most up-to-date fashions and have the most fashionable haircuts. They imitate well-known sinners and disbelievers in society, such as singers, musicians, actors, sports personalities, fashion models, and celebrities in order to be fashionable. Some of our Muslim brothers and sisters may be unaware of the Sharee'ah rulings on clothing, hairstyles, and resembling the Kuffaar, while others may be aware but overwhelmed by the desire to fit in or keep up.

Beard & Haircuts
Examples of some Non-Islamic Mustache Styles which are in direct contradiction to the Sunnah.
The best is to trim the mustache as is the Sunnah. As for shaving it, that is not Sunnah. The analogy drawn by some of them, that it is prescribed to shave it as the head is shaved in Hajj is an analogy when a clear text states something else, so this analogy does not carry any weight. Hence Maalik said concerning shaving the mustache: It is an innovation that has appeared among the people, but we should not turn away from what is mentioned in the Sunnah, because following it is guidance, righteousness, happiness and success. End quote.
Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen said in Majmoo' al-Fataawa (11/Baab al-Siwaak wa Sunan al-Fitrah/ question no. 54).
