But the interviewer himself is not covering his head!

🧢 Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) always covered his head with a cap, turban, or helmet.

📖 Numerous Hadith confirm that covering the head was a practice of both Prophet Muhammad and the Sahabas.

✅ All four major Islamic schools of thought (Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali) agree that covering the head is a Sunnah and encouraged during prayer.

🙏 Praying without covering the head is considered Makruh (discouraged).

🌍 In the past, almost all Muslim men covered their heads during prayer, but now it's become less common.

✈ Some people, after traveling to Gulf countries or performing Hajj, mistakenly think that covering the head isn't required.

🤔 Some Gulf scholars don't view head covering as essential for the validity of Salah, but top scholars still maintain it is a Sunnah.

🏛 The Prophet never prayed bareheaded except during Hajj or Umrah, as covering the head is Haram during these states.

⛔ Using the argument that Hajj and Umrah don't require head covering is incorrect; it's due to specific restrictions during those rituals.

🌟 The head covering (turban, cap) was a common practice among early Muslims, including Sahabas, and remains a recommended act today.

to be honest , they all say to use the taqiyah , but it doesnt change anything in salah
