The ruling on adjusting the shemagh and ghutrah during prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: The prohibition is mentioned regarding leveling pebbles during prayer. Does this include the excessive effort some worshippers make in straightening their shemagh (headscarf) and adjusting it during their prayer?

The Shaykh:
Leveling.

The questioner:
The shemagh, the ghutrah.

The Shaykh:
There is no harm. He may adjust his clothes for the sake of adorning himself with them. There is no harm in it. It is not like pebbles. Yes. He may straighten his jacket, he may straighten his shemagh or turban. There is no harm in that. Yes.
