The ruling on covering the face with a shemagh in prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, he says: What is the ruling on wearing a shemagh over the face during prayer?

Answer:
Wearing a shemagh over the face is disliked, and covering the face is disliked in prayer, unless one has a need for it, such as needing to cover the face. Without a need, it is disliked.
