Do you say that uncovering a man's head is disliked?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : My Shaykh, one of my brothers asked me about the head covering, and whether the Shaykh says that uncovering the head is disliked? Of course, I mean the lesser form of dislike (tanzihi).
The Shaykh : I say: Yes, uncovering the head is disliked in the lesser form (tanzihi) at the very least, because we have no text prohibiting it. Yes, but if it is observed that one persists in not caring to implement the word of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) in the Qur'an:[Al-A'raf 7:31], then this dislike may rise from the lesser form (tanzihi) to prohibition.
The questioner : Yes, my Shaykh, so is the matter now specific to prayer?
The Shaykh : No, it is general.
The questioner : At every mosque?!
The Shaykh : But your question was about prayer.
The questioner : My question was general, may Allah reward you.
The Shaykh : How so? You did not mention prayer.
The questioner : I did not mention it at the beginning of my question.
The Shaykh : Good.
The questioner : Yes, now, may Allah honor you, my Shaykh, the issue is clarified: if this Muslim is negligent in leaving off his head covering, and we say, especially in prayer,
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : And that means leaving off the implementation of the word of Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He):[Al-A'raf 7:31], this dislike rises from the lesser form (tanzihi) to...
The Shaykh : Prohibition.
The questioner : To prohibition!
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : May Allah honor you, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : And beware of that.
The Shaykh : I say: Yes, uncovering the head is disliked in the lesser form (tanzihi) at the very least, because we have no text prohibiting it. Yes, but if it is observed that one persists in not caring to implement the word of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) in the Qur'an:
take your adornment at every masjid
خُذُوا زِينَتَكُمْ عِنْدَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍThe questioner : Yes, my Shaykh, so is the matter now specific to prayer?
