Kufi

Kufi is a type of hat that people wear in some Muslim countries. It looks like a simple cap with no brim, and it can be made out of different materials such as cotton or wool.

The hat is named after a city called Kufa which is located in present-day Iraq. People in the early Islamic era used to wear Kufis as a way to show their connection to Islam and pray more sincerely. Nowadays, people wear Kufis as a sign of religious devotion and identity.

Kufis can be plain or decorated with beautiful patterns or embroidery. Some people wear them every day, while others only wear them during religious occasions such as Fridays or Eid celebrations.

So, in short, Kufi is a hat that some people wear to show their love and devotion to Islam.
