Placing the end of the shemagh under the forehead during prostration
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Some of the people who pray take the end of their shemagh and spread it under their forehead and nose during prostration. He asks: Is that permissible?
Answer:
If he needs it, there is nothing wrong with it. The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) used to pray while the ground was hot; during the midday prayer, they would place their turbans under their foreheads and prostrate on them. If it is for a need, there is nothing wrong with it. But if it is without a need, it is better to leave it. Yes.
