The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is there evidence in the supplicationJami` at-Tirmidhi 580Da'if (Darussalam) that the ears are part of the head?
The Shaykh:
The ears are part of the head, but it was asked: Is there evidence that they are part of the face? Because he attributed them to the face. No, they are part of the head. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not wash them; rather, he wiped over them just as he wiped over the head. If they had been part of the face, he would have washed them.
