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

do you get more sawaab if you keep your beard first than shave it then keep it.

Answer

It is not permissible to shave the beard at all. Therefore, by shaving off and rekeeping the beard, the reward is not increased.

What if a person shaves the beard with the intention of rekeeping it and passes away in the interim, with what face will he appear on the day of Qiyaamat in front of Allah and his beloved Prophet (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam).
