We Muslims Love Jesus. That is Why We Grow a Beard

It is typical of Muslims to focus on external appearance of spirituality rather than what is on the inside.
Your beard will not draw you closer to heaven, nor will a lack of beard keep you out.

Jesus said:

If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word. My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.
--John 14:23

It is also curious there is no verse in the New Testament that states that Jesus had a beard.  So that can't be so important.
But we do read where Jesus taught against the religious teachers of their day, who emphasized their external appearance:

 They do everything to be observed by others: They enlarge their phylacteries and lengthen their tassels. They love the place of honor at banquets, the front seats in the synagogues, greetings in the marketplaces, and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by people.
--Matthew 23:5-7

Muslims Love Jesus, don't they?

Muslims are quick to claim they love Jesus.
Actually the name "Jesus" does not appear in the Quran.  It only has "Isa". 
Their version of Jesus is very different from the Jesus of the Bible, and Muslims know this. 
The bottom line is that it is far worse to LIE about Jesus than it is to deny him.

James 3:1 says this:

Not many should become teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive a stricter judgment

So unless you are sure about it, you should not teach something, lest it be wrong and you receive this  judgement mentioned above.
