Can We Cover Our Head In Hajj? by Lukgaf(m): 5:32am On Jun 21 |
There has been controversy online regarding a Yoruba king who went for Hajj, with a trending picture showing his head uncovered. Some people consider this a taboo in Yoruba culture and have started criticizing the revered king. What is the ruling of Islam on this? Firstly, it should be noted that a man performing Hajj or Umrah is not permitted to cover his head. This rule applies to men because women are required to wear their usual hijab (without covering their faces) while performing Hajj or Umrah. If a male pilgrim covers his head during Hajj or Umrah with something that directly touches his head, such as a turban or the like, then he must make fidyah (expiation). Therefore, a pilgrim can protect himself from the sun with an umbrella or a piece of cloth, as long as it does not directly touch his head. If he needs to wear a hat or a turban, he must choose one of three kinds of ransom: either to slaughter a sheep, fast for three days, or feed six needy people. Allah Almighty says, {And do not shave your heads until the offering reaches its lawful destination. So whoever of you is sick or is hurt in his head, then (make) a ransom by fast or donation, or ritual (sacrifice).} (Al-Baqarah 2:196) This verse addresses those who shave while in ihram. Muslim jurists also apply it to those who cover their heads, clip their nails, use perfumes, or wear sewn clothes during ihram, agreeing that expiation is obligatory in these cases. Thus, expiation is required for any of the restrictions of ihram. The person must choose one of three options: slaughtering a sheep, fasting for three days, or feeding six needy people. That being said, what's so special about a king (a creature like us) uncovering his head sincerely to worship his Creator (Allah)? What's the big deal? Is there an automatic paradise for him? Do their barbers not see their heads or their wives when in za oza room? Such concerns are unfounded. According to Shaykh Sharoff, a discussion like this is merely a "Yoruba level" argument and should not surprise anyone. Irọ́ lásán 8 Likes
