In this segment of Abu Lahya’s lecture, the speaker cites a reliable, authentic hadith in which two Persian assassins were sent to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The assassins had shaved their beards and grown mustaches. Upon seeing them, the Prophet turned his face away, an act described as a sign of disgust. Abu Lahya uses this incident to argue that shaving the beard and cultivating a mustache is contrary to prophetic etiquette and serves as evidence for the Islamic obligation to maintain a beard. The broader video expands this point to discuss the theological, social, and identity‑related reasons why all Muslims should keep a beard.
