He should care for the condi- tion of the congregation and not greatly lengthen the Prayer in such a situation. Growing the Beard and Trimming the Moustache is Commendable It was mentioned regarding beards and moustaches that new fashions are introduced; some shave the beard and some shave both the beard and the moustache.
