What is the ruling of plucking hairs off the beard? Answer: ﺑﺴﻢ اﷲ اﻟﺮﺣﻤﻦ اﻟﺮﺣﯿﻢ In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

To intentionally pluck the hair of the beard without any valid reason is prohibited. However, if hair falls out, unintentionally, by stroking the beard, fiddling with it, combing it, etc. then one will be excused and not sinful. [1]
