Is there evidence that wearing the turban is an act of worship to Allah?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is there evidence from the Sunnah regarding worshipping Allah the Exalted by wearing the turban or the hat?
The Shaykh : No, rather this is from the customs of habit, which differ from the customs of the disbelievers.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : This is based on the generality of his statement (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan Ibn Majah 3621Sahih (Darussalam). Opposing the disbelievers is a general Islamic principle that expands and contracts according to differences in place and time. However, in its essence, it is a custom and not an act of worship. But distinguishing the Muslim from the disbeliever is from the Sunnah of worship, and this is the answer to what you asked.
The Shaykh : No, rather this is from the customs of habit, which differ from the customs of the disbelievers.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : This is based on the generality of his statement (peace and blessings be upon him):
The Jews and the Christians do not dye (their hair), so differ from them.
إن اليهود والنصارى لا يصبغون شعورهم ؛ فخالفوهم
