Clarified for Ritual Observance and Adhān Etiquette

❖ Question​

Is it valid to give the Adhān (call to prayer) while bare-headed (without a cap or turban)?

❖ Answer​

Yes, giving the Adhān without a head covering is permissible, and the Adhān remains valid.

🛑 Although wearing a head covering is considered respectful and a desirable practice (mustaḥabb) in general Islamic etiquettes, its absence does not invalidate the Adhān.
