Dhari Aur Khizab

Overview:

Dhari Aur Khizab in Islam is an authentic and research-based book written by Maulana Farooq Rafee, a respected scholar and teacher at Jamia Lahore Al-Islami, Markaz Al-Bayt Al-Atiq. This book covers two important aspects of Islamic teachings—the rulings related to the beard and the Islamic guidelines for dyeing hair.

Maulana Farooq Rafee, known for his deep knowledge and scholarly research, has presented a comprehensive and evidence-based discussion on both topics in the light of the Quran and Sunnah. The book is divided into two parts: the first discusses the Islamic rulings regarding keeping a beard and the prohibition of shaving or trimming it excessively. The second part focuses on the etiquette and rules of using hair dye, especially when dealing with white hair.

This book is a valuable addition to Islamic literature and a must-read for scholars and laypeople who wish to align their lives with authentic Islamic teachings.

The author has previously written several well-received books, such as Ideal Home, Azkaar and Wazaif, Rulings for Newborns, Fiqhi Rulings of Purity, and Happy and Peaceful Married Life, all of which reflect his scholarly expertise. Beard and Khizab in Islam continues his tradition of insightful and practical guidance.
