What is the ruling on wiping the hands over the face after supplication?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : This questioner is asking about wiping the hands over the face after supplication.

The Shaykh : The correct view is that it is not prescribed to wipe the face with them, because the hadiths reported regarding this are very weak, do not constitute a proof, and do not cohere with one another.
Therefore, the truth is that wiping the face with the hands after supplication is not a recommended practice (sunnah), but a person should not do it, nor should he disapprove of one who does it, because some scholars have recommended it. Yes.
