How to wipe over the turban if part of the head is exposed

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And regarding the tashahhud, if the imam is covering [the head] from the voluntary prayer, and not covering from the obligatory and deficient, how is the one who is prostrating?

The Shaykh:
As the Imam Ibn al-Qayyim mentioned, if the sides of part of the head are exposed, he wipes over the exposed part and completes the wiping over the turban. Yes.

The questioner:
And if the words of your Lord are to the head, then nothing of the words of your Lord is seen of the head except a little.

The Shaykh:
Wiping over the turban: if the turban is loose and covers the head and nothing of it is exposed, then wiping over the turban is sufficient, just as wiping over the two socks is sufficient in place of washing the two feet. Yes. As I mentioned to you, there are three images, the three images mentioned in the Sunnah: wiping over the forelock and completing over the turban, wiping over the entire head, wiping over the entire turban. There is no [fourth] image. Yes.
