The Ruling and Method of Wiping over the Turban During Ablution

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the turban tied or...?

Answer:
This is their custom... they make it a wrapped turban. If it is not a wrapped turban, it is not wiped over. If this is merely a headband, it is not sufficient, yes.
Q: Is the wrapping necessary?
A: This is the stronger position; because that is where the difficulty and hardship lie. As for if it is not wrapped, there is no difficulty in removing it and wiping what is underneath it.
Q: Is it a condition that it be worn while in a state of purity?
A: Yes, it is like the leather socks, the same.
Q: The time limit as well?
A: Yes; because it is like the leather socks, the same.
Q: Regarding wiping over the head: If a person, for example, wears the turban, and nothing of his forehead is visible, is it sufficient to just wipe?
A: Wiping is sufficient. If it covers the entire head, wiping is sufficient.
Q: Is it a condition for wiping over the turban that it covers the entire head?
A: No, it is not a condition. If it does not cover the head, he wipes what is exposed.
