Understanding the Benefits of Covering Your Eyes in Maktab Madrasah

Answered by 

Shaykh Ebrahim Salejee

Q: When I attended maktab madrasah, I always heard about murat and I didn’t understand anything about it and now when I am teaching maktab I keep telling my kids to cover up the eyes.

Can I have an explanation and if there are any benefits in covering the eyes?

Bismillaah

A: Actually, the entire head should be removed.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
