Discussion on shading with an umbrella or the like for the one in ihram.

The Shaykh : The first category is what is permissible by explicit text and scholarly consensus, such as when a person applies a substance to his head to make it smooth, for example, by applying something like henna. If the one in ihram applies something to his head, such as henna, honey, or gum, to make the hair lie flat, this is permissible. It is established in the authentic collections from Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with his head smoothed". What does "smoothed" mean? It means his head was smoothed, i.e., he had applied something to it to make it smooth. There is no harm in this based on the text, and I believe it is a matter of consensus. Second, covering the head with something not intended for covering or concealment, such as carrying luggage, is also permissible. It is permissible for a person to carry his luggage on his head while in ihram, and there is no blame on him for doing so, because this is generally not intended for concealment, and one generally does not conceal oneself with it. Third, covering the head with what is customarily worn on the head, such as a cap, a shemagh, or a turban, is also forbidden by explicit text, and I believe it is a matter of consensus. Fourth, covering the head with something that is not considered clothing but is in direct contact and intended for covering is also forbidden. What is the evidence for this? What is the evidence, my brothers?
The attendees:

The Shaykh : The hadith of the man whose camel fell over. The strange thing is that Ibn Hazm (may Allah have mercy on him) differed on this regarding the issue of covering the face. We will come to the covering of the face later. Is covering the face forbidden or not?
The fifth category is shading the head with something attached to the person, such as an umbrella, a carriage, a camel's load, or the like. This is a matter of disagreement among scholars; some permitted it, which is the correct view, and some forbade it. The sixth category is taking shade from something separate from the person and not attached to him, such as taking shade in a tent, or a cloth placed on a tree, or the branches of a tree, or the like. This is permissible, and there is no harm in it. It is established that a canopy was set up for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at Namirah, and he remained in it until the sun passed its zenith at 'Arafah. Now, if someone asks, "Is shading with an umbrella or the like a form of covering?" The answer is no, it is not covering, because the person walking beside you can see your entire head; the head is not covered. Moreover, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to ride with Usamah, and al-Fadhl was his companion on the camel during his departure from Muzdalifah to Mina. Bilal and Usamah, one of them would lead the camel, and the other would place his garment on his head to shade him until he stoned the Jamarat al-'Aqabah. This is exactly like an umbrella. Therefore, the correct view in this issue is that it is permissible; this is not covering, so it does not contradict his statement (peace and blessings be upon him): Now, is this prohibition general for men and women, or is it specific to men? It is specific to men. As for the first category, shaving the head and cutting the nails, that is general for both men and women.
