Covering the head whilst reading Quran

Q. Is it compulsory to cover the head whilst reading Quran? 

A. Whilst it is not a requirement to cover the head whilst reading the Qur’ān, to do so is a mark of respect. Allāh Ta‘ālā says:

“Whosoever venerates the symbols of Allāh, then it is truly from the piety of the hearts.” (Qur’ān, 22:32)

When reciting the Qur’ān, one should bear in mind that it is like one is communicating with Allāh Ta‘ālā and therefore, one should observe utmost etiquette.

Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
