Shaving the Beard to Travel for Studies

If someone has a proper beard but intents to go to Europe for studies, would it be permissible for him to temporarily shave his beard? Is this allowed in Islam?

الجوابُ حامِدا ًو مُصلیِّا ً

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Keeping a beard is mandatory as per Shari’ah, and it unlawful to shave it off, or trim it lower than a fist’s length. For this reason, it would not be lawful for one to shave his beard even if he is compelled to due to certain circumstances. One must refrain from doing such.
And Allah knows best.
