Hanafi Views on Men’s Head Covering and Etiquettes in Salaah, Eating, and Bathroom

Answered by 

Shaykh Ebrahim Salejee

Q: What is the various hanafi views on men covering or not covering the head in Salaah, eating and going to the bathroom. Another question is at what times should a mans head be covered according to the Hanafi school?

Bismillaah

A: In salaah it is emphasised. It is makrooh to perform the salaah without covering the head. It is not a sunnah at the time of taking meals. It is desirable when going into the bathroom, though not a sunnah.

According to all four imams, whether one is in salaah or out of salaah the head should be covered.

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