Muslim caps and their significance for Islamic men

Muslim caps are the round caps worn over their head by Muslim men during prayers and rituals. They are also called “Taqiyah” or “Islamic caps”. Islamic practices require the Muslim men to keep their heads covered during prayers or other Islamic rituals, which is the reason behind the origin of these caps. They are also worn as a show of love and respect to Allah.

In some Islamic countries, besides prayer wear, these caps also have a cultural significance and heritage. That is why these caps form a part of the regular wear of the Muslim men of those countries.

The Muslim caps are not only worn for the religious purpose these days. They have become a stylish element of men’s fashion, a fashion statement. They are available in variant colors, shapes, and designs whether handmade or otherwise, which possess a very rich traditional look.
