@Moshe Kohn I was not agreeing with Abe Cohen’s post at all. The Mishnah B’rurah makes no mention of wearing an ‘additional’ hat for Davening or Bentsching. One head covering is enough. Of course you can Daven or Bentch without a hat, unless you’re in a place like B’nei Brak where the lack of a hat would be considered disrespectful. A lot of people misquote/make up these Mishnah B’rurahs and it really bothers me. He never says you need a double head covering and his statement about wearing a hat for Davening is very clearly only because of the fact that all people always wore hats outside.
