Q 1: Can someone work as a barber provided that he does not shave beards? Can one receive fees for that work?

A: Shaving the beard is prohibited. One is not permitted to work as a barber shaving beards as it is considered cooperation in sin and transgression. Allah forbids this in His statement, ...but do not help one another in sin and transgression. However, working as a barber to cut men's hair without shaving beards is not prohibited. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
