If the beard is thin and the skin can be seen, washing the skin is mandatory. But if it is thick, putting the wet fingers in between the hair with some water is sufficient.

My question is regarding wudu. If the beard is thick at the chin does one have to wash the outer layer of the part of the beard that is below the chin and extends to the top of the neck? I don’t know if it would be part of the face in wudu. If this is obligatory to do then what about the wudu’s which I have done earlier in which I did not wash this part? Would it be valid?

Sheikh, is tayammum is rubbing the hand upto the wrist or elbow? and should I start with face or hands first because one hadeeth says hands first and another hadeeth says face first though both are authentic.Please provide me with authentic evidence.

If I do Wudoo for Fajr on a Friday, and then wear my socks, after I’ve prayed I take off my socks and do obligatory Ghusl only (only washing mouth nose and body once as I already have Wudoo) and put the same socks back on after, is it permissible for me to wipe over these later for example when redoing Wudoo for Jum’uah.
