    many fast that day. others make an elaborate kiddush with cholent and kishke. others put on 2 sets of tefillin that day. and donald trump admits that the election was not stolen.
    you guys for real?? the questioner was making a joke. stop taking stuff so literally.

    Are you trying to tell me that black hats is not an official minhag? At bar mitzvah kids start wearing black hats, and put them on even in the house just to bentch. If that’s not a minhag I don’t know what is.
    As for turbans, you have an obsession about that. I clearly wrote turbans OR COOLER HEADGEARS. Of course, they probably did wear turbans, and no one is comparing that to the Arabs. Sketches of the Rambam show him wearing some kind of turban.
    But , hey, you enjoy sweating? Again, gesunterheit !

    Of course you’re not answering the basic question – why were religious Jews allowed to change their tradition and put on black hats, while 2,000 years later, it is ossur to change back (turbans or other cooler headgears) ?
    to watch whole communities in Israel under the black hat phenomemon, when it is 120 degrees in the shade, is plain meshugah.
    Just my opinion – you want to sweat? gesunteheit !

    When the Jews were expelled from Israel in Roman times, they wore turbans similar to the Arabs. While in Europe, under cold climates, the SWITCHED their tradition to wear those hats, shtreimels etc.
    Why, when the Jews, after 2,000 years of torture and death, returned to Israel, not SWITCH back to headgear more suitable to a hot climate?
    As a rabbi once told us, it’s not a mitzvah to sweat !
