Didn't you ever wonder WHY they wear a rag on their heads? It was pre- Islam( but same people worshipping the same black rock called allah) custom to shave ones head down the center, from forehead to the back of the neck, like a reverse mohawk, that brought about the need to cover ones head, or else severe sunburn caused painfull blisters. Also, because there was no wood available in the desert regions where Arabs lived, they couldn't make toilet paper. Because they were nomadic, they traveled light, carrying things with multiple uses. The turban (turdband) has such a use. Muhammad of course, prefurred stones when wiping his butt, but also used his turd band when there were no stones available. They were washed when a water supply was located. They also became stained by the fruits and berries they ate along their travels. Later, they stained these turd bands with dyes as toilet paper became more available through contact with other cultures.
