Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Wiping over the turban.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : You mentioned it as if it is not a restricted garment.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : In this case, one does not rebuke the person who...

The questioner : In the name of Allah, praise be to Allah, and may the prayer and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah. You mentioned wiping over the turban. May Allah reward you.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : So, one does not rebuke the person who wipes over the turban in this case. It does not have a specific time?

The Shaykh : The correct view is that it does not have a specific time. The correct view is that wiping over the turban does not have a specific time, because nothing has been reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding this. And a matter that has not been reported from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) cannot be used to restrict the community.

The questioner : As for the turban, is the turban the one that is tied, or the one that is wrapped, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh : No, the turban is the one wrapped around the head.

The questioner : The one that is difficult to untie, meaning.

The Shaykh : Yes. As for the ghutrah, the shemagh, and the aqal.

The questioner : The first one.

The Shaykh : No, the first one must be removed and the head must be wiped.

The questioner : I mean, is the turban like the turbans of the Afghan brothers and the Sudanese?

The Shaykh : Like the Afghans and the Sudanese and others. And also what is worn in winter, like this hat. This hat that covers the entire head and has a band at the bottom near the neck has the ruling of the turban.

The questioner : And wiping over the turban is like wiping over the head. Does one wipe the whole thing or a small part?

The Shaykh : No, most of it is sufficient. It is sufficient to wipe most of it.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : The ear is not wiped. If it is exposed, it is wiped. If the turban has covered it, it is not wiped. Ah, ah. Writing is difficult, you see.
