THE BAREHEADED MUSLIMS
This story is about a man who was very pious. He always tried to keep away from sins and greatly loved the Sunnah of the Prophet (sallalahu ‘alahi wa sallam). He wore a topi (Islamic cap) all day along and hence Shaytan was very annoyed with him
One day after having a bath he noticed his curly black hair and wished he could once in a while move around without a topi so that people could see his beautiful hair. At that instance Shaytan appeared before him and said, “My dear friend I know you are a God-fearing person but that does not mean you should wear the topi all the time. You can wear it when you are in the Masjid and once you come out of the Masjid you can remove your topi.”
Our friend liked the idea and started putting it into practice.
A few days later Shaytan appeared to him again and said, “Why do you insist on putting on the cap even at the time of the salaat?”
“Because our Prophet (sallalahu ‘alahi wa sallam) used to do so,” said our friend.
“My friend, there is no concrete proof that he used to cover his head either outside the Masjid or inside it” said Shaytan.
“Do you mean to say at the time of salaat he used to stand bareheaded before his Master?” Our friend retorted.
“That’s absolutely true.” said Shaytan. “If a person like him did that then who are we to cover our heads?”
Consequently the topi disappeared permanently from our friend’s head. Now he stands bareheaded even in front of Allah the most High, the Almighty, the Creator of this Universe, the Protector, the Sustainer, the Benefactor – list of His attributes are inexhaustible.
Like our friend thousands of other Muslims have now fallen prey to this trick of the Shaytan and have thus discarded completely the topi or the male Muslim headgear. The sad part is that they think they are, naudhubillahi min dhalik, following the Sunnah of the Prophet (sallalahu ‘alahi wa sallam).
The Shaytan is now celebrating his tremendous success!!!
