Question:
Assalamu Alaikum wr wb ya Shuyukh,
May Allah increase your knowledge and give Mawlana Shaykh Hisham and Shaykh Nazim long life. My question is that I am leaving for Umrah in Ramadhan. I wanted ask can I wear the Naqshbandi taj in Madina? The Salafis have a problem with turbans especially, green ones, that’s why I don’t want it to be an issue.
Answer:
A`udhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajeem
Bismillahi ‘r-Rahmani ‘r-Raheem
Insha Allah, there are no problems, especially in Madinah. Many mureeds are doing it so don’t worry.
If you feel it might be a problem, then wear the kufi or at least a normal small turban.
Pray for us all while you are there, and send Salams to the Prophet s.a.w. and his Family and Companions and the Ka’bah Sharifah.
Abdul Shakur
