Question:
Also, Your Eminence, father, they are asking about wearing a cap. Is there anything wrong with it, especially since it has become widespread among the youth recently?
Answer:
If it involves imitating the polytheists, avoid it. If it is part of Muslim dress, there is nothing wrong with it. If it involves imitating the enemies of Allah, there is nothing wrong with it. Whoever imitates a people is one of them.
