Hi, I'm new here and the purpose for my decision to join this forum was to ask this particular question. I tried researching the topic online and searched the forum but unfortunately no satisfactory answers have come up.
I gathered that it's pretty important for Muslims to grow a beard and trim the mustache, some sources even say it's necessary and liken a Muslim with no beard to a hermaphrodite. This caused a bit of stress for me, because I have been considering converting to Islam and I am unable to grow a beard because of my ethnicity. None of my family members can grow beards either, and seeing as I'm in my twenties now, I don't see much of a chance of ever sporting one either. What are your thoughts on this?
