Is it permissible to wipe over the turban and the cap?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The questioner asks: Is it permissible to wipe over the turban and what is called the cap?
The Shaykh : As for the turban, it is permissible to wipe over it, because it is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he wiped over his turban.
As for the cap, it is not permissible to wipe over it.
The difference between them is that it is difficult to remove the turban, because it is folded over the head, so if one wants to untie it and then put it on again, this causes hardship for him. As for the cap, there is no hardship in removing it.
But there is something worn on the head that they call the qub'ah, I think that is how it is called, or the qub'ah. This is wiped over, because this covers the entire head, and perhaps some of it is under the neck, making it difficult to remove, so it is permissible to wipe over it. Wiping over this may be more preferable than wiping over the turban mentioned in the Sunnah. Yes.
