Is the turban a recommended practice or what, and is it permissible to pray without a turban, or is that an innovation?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. Is the turban a recommended practice, or what? And is it permissible to pray without a turban, or is that an innovation? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
The turban is permissible; it is among the garments whose wearing is allowed, whether it is a turban or other head coverings that men customarily wear according to the custom of the country. This is among the permissible things, not among the recommended practices. It is not a condition for prayer to wear a turban, nor is it required that the head be covered. Rather, this is a matter of perfection and what is better. It is better for a person to be in his prayer in the best form, due to the saying of Allah the Exalted: . The adornment is the clothing that covers the private parts and beautifies the appearance. As for what exceeds covering the private parts, it is recommended. As for covering the private parts in prayer, it is a condition for its validity, provided one is able to do so; the prayer is not valid without it. Yes.
