I am confused about whether the qubda lenght of the beard is sunnah or wajib. Everybody is on the world wide web is saying that it is wajib to have at qudha lenght.
But then I read this:
Shaykh al-Hadith ‘Allama Ghulam Rasul Sa’idi al-Hanafi (hafizahu Llah) has a thorough analysis of the subject in his Sharh Sahih Muslim (urdu), where he quotes from many of the great Hanafi authorities, like Ibn Hummam (Fath al-Qadir), Badr al-Din al-‘Ayni (al-Binaya), Zayd al-Din Ibn Najim (Bahr al-Ra’iq), al-Shurunbulali (Hashiya al-Durar wa al-ghurar), Mulla ‘Ali al-Qari (al-Mirqat), al-Haskafi (Durr al-Mukhtar), Ibn ‘Abidin (Radd al-Muhtar), al-Tahtawi (Hashiya ‘ala Maraqi al-Falah) – Ramatu Llahi ‘alayhim ajma’in – all stating that the qubda is ‘sunna’.
Most of the quotes go in the line of ‘wa huwa ay al-qadr al-masnun fi al-lihya al-qubda’, or ‘… bi qadr al-masnun wa huwa al-qubda..’, or the like.

In Islam, why dogs are considered impure animal
In Islam, why dogs are considered impure animal?
All creatures are the creation of Allah Ta'ala and do deserve the recognition of being a creation of the Almighty. As much as Muslims detest even the sight of pigs - it is the creation of Allah Ta'ala - and because Allah has placed life into it, we cannot inflict pain nor torture the pig. Similarly Allah Ta'ala created the dog from among His creation. This does not mean that we should love the dog. It is perhaps the indoctrination of the Western culture that 'The dog is Man's best Friend'.

Did the Prophet s.a.w. fast on a Monday because it was the day of his birth
1. Your fatwa [no. 13659] suggests that Meelad had justification under certain circumstances. Yet, in a recent fatwa you have quoted the hadith wherein you mention that “every innovation is in hell.” Does the said hadith not be applicable to fatwa 13659?
2. Did the Prophet [saw] fast on a Monday because it was the day of his birth? If yes, is this not a commemoration [on his (saw) part] of his birthday?
