For starters , I am a woman (south Asian to be specific- probably can beat you at growing a beard)

My question is , is it haram for Muslim man not to grow a beard ?

The reason why I am asking and also observing Muslim men , tend to comment on non hijab women for not wearing a hijab . Majority of them are clean shaven , shave off their beards etc ( which tempts me to reply ‘brother , where is your beard ?)

Is it fardh for a Muslim man to grow his beard out ?
