The ruling on placing the end of the shemagh under the limbs of prostration

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: Some of the worshippers place the end of the shemagh under the limbs of prostration, and this is repeated in every prostration.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, especially if it is for an excuse, such as the ground being hot, or containing pebbles, thorns, or a foul smell. This is because some mosques are not cleaned, and people pray in them, some of whom have foul smells and there is dirt, so a foul smell remains. This is a common occurrence. There is no objection, provided it is for a reason. However, if it is without a reason, it is recommended for him to place his forehead and nose directly on the place of prostration. Yes.
