The ruling on wiping the face with the hands after supplication
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the discussion is still ongoing regarding the performance of the tarawih prayer for women, and there are some questions on this topic. Regarding the supplication during the qunut, which we discussed yesterday, is wiping the face after the supplication prescribed?
Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. As for wiping the face with the hands after supplication, there are hadiths reported on this, but they are weak hadiths, as the scholars of knowledge have pointed out. Therefore, it is better not to wipe the face with the hands after supplication. If someone does it, it is not to be denounced because of the hadiths reported on it, even though they are weak, so it is not to be denounced. However, the best is not to wipe one's face with one's hands after supplication, because it is not established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
