251 | Do you have to be circumcised to be a Muslim and why? (What about new people to Islam who are adults? | ||
Being circumcised is a highly recommended Sunnah, but it is not a fundamental Islamic belief (i.e. a Fard; one which can take you out of fold of Islam). Therefore you dont have to be circumcised to be a Muslim; but all Muslim males choose to follow this Sunnah and are circumcised. Reverts to Islam can get circumcised afterwards in order to fulfil the Sunnah. | |||
