Question

What is the significance of having a forehead mark from salaah? Why people don't have it even after praying for years? Some people have this mark only after a few weeks of praying. Is this some sign that the prayers are thrown back on the? People are telling it's a sign of hypocrisy? Is it true?

Answer

There is no significance in it.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
