Fatwa #421029 November 2001United States of America

How exactly should one respond to a yawn or an itch while in Salaat?Also, if my cap (?topi?) is about to fall off during Salaat, can I press it back on my head?

Answer

One should try to suppress the yawn. If there is a need to yawn, then cover
the mouth with one hand only.

If the need to scratch is severe, one may do so with one hand only. One may
press the Topie in place with one hand only.

None of these actions should be done excessively.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
