Once after the Dhikr Majlis which took place after the Asr Salaat, at the Riyadul Uloom, Shaykh sat and imparted some advice. Amongst the advices there was one particular point which was aimed at the students, but nevertheless useful for anyone:
“…You should make a habit of wearing an Amaamah (an Islamic turban, which has one or two long tails that drop upon the nape, between the shoulders) because it is a notable sunnah of Nabi sallallahu alayhi wassallam. I have read somewhere that a person who wears the turban, will be granted the quality of forbearance; and after all, wearing the turban increases the beauty in men”.
Subhanallah!
Where ever I have been with with the Ammamah on my head, I have gained respect Alhamdulillah.
Mashallah, I have started wearing the amamah. It keeps me mindful of observing the Sunnah at all times and indeed creates forbearance. Alhumdulillah.
