The question text was not published separately; the title stands in for it.

When performing Wudhu, how should the beard be washed?

Answer

If the beard is thick, it will suffice to pass the wet fingers through it and if the beard is sparse, then it is necessary to wash the skin beneath it. (Shaami vol.1 pg.117; HM Saeed)
