    The Taliban banned barbershops in a southern Afghanistan province from shaving or trimming beards, claiming their edict is in line with Islamic law. The Taliban demanded that men grow beards during their previous rule in the 1990s.http://apne.ws/8xAxm88

        Little known fact: Not all music is banned by the Taliban; ZZ Top is allowed due to the band's excellent beards.
