Question:
This is the boundary of the head. The front part is where the two feet land, and the point is… I don’t know, I don’t know.
Answer:
The face is well known, but its specific definition relies on custom. The face extends from the usual hairline of the head to where the beard begins. This is in terms of length and width: from ear to ear is the width of the face. Yes, the width of the face is from ear to ear. As for its length, it is from the usual hairline of the head to where the beard and chin begin. Yes. It is defined by the ankles and the two openings. Yes. No, since the evidence has come, we do not need custom. We only refer to custom when there is no evidence. Yes.
