Prostrating on the Turban

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If I am wearing a turban, is it permissible for me to prostrate on it, or is it necessary for the forehead to be directly on the ground?

Answer:
If the turban is difficult for you to remove because it is tightly wrapped, there is no harm in prostrating on it. However, if it is not difficult for you to remove it, then placing the forehead and nose directly on the place of prostration is undoubtedly better. Yes.
