Wiping the face with the hands after supplication
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
What is the ruling on wiping the face with the hands after supplication?
Some scholars hold that it is a recommended practice (sunnah), while the Shaykh al-Islam holds that it is a religious innovation (bid'ah), and this is based on the authenticity of the hadith reported on this matter,And regarding the hadith reported on this matter, the Shaykh al-Islam said: which is fabricated.
Meaning: It is a lie attributed to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
And what I see in this issue is: One who wipes is not censured, and one who does not wipe is not censured, but the one who does not wipe is closer to the Sunnah than the one who wipes.
