Question
I have been told that making masah on the neck during wudhu is bid'ah. Is this true? I checked a Hadith book and could not find it. What is the proof for this practice?
Answer
It is false. For fourteen centuries the Ummah has been making masah on the neck. The new-fangled stunts of rejection and personal opinion of the Salafis are devoid of Shar'i substance. We teach the masaa-il of the Shariah as these have been transmitted from generation to generation by reliable narration. We don't extract masaa-il from Hadith books. If you are interested in 'proofs', devote five years to study the Deen at a Madrasah.You will then understand the proofs.
