Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: If a man prays with his head uncovered, is his prayer deficient? And did the Companions cover their heads while praying?
Answer:
Is not perfection[Al-A'raf 7:31], and the obligatory adornment is covering the 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered); whatever exceeds that is mustahabb (recommended). Everything by which a person beautifies himself is mustahabb (recommended), and among that is covering the head for a man, which is mustahabb (recommended), because it is part of perfection and beauty.
