Is a faasiq prostitute or a faassiq man who shaves his beard a worse sinner?

Question

Is a faasiq prostitute or a faassiq man who shaves his beard a worse sinner?

Answer

The prostitute is a faajirah (an immoral woman), not a faasiqah. She does not sin openly, in public. Her sin is concealed. But, a fellow who shaves his beard is a vile faasiq worse than the faajirah prostitute because he sins flagrantly, without any remorse, every second of his life in the public. He sins even in Salaat with his mal-oon face.
