Kofia (hat)

The kofia is a type of brimless cylindrical headwear with a flat top, typically worn by Muslim men. It is closely related to the Omani Kuma. The kofia is a sign of peace, mourning and renewal, as well as protection of one's mind. Many believe that they are a symbol of a man's Islamic identity and are worn as a sign of reverence for Allah.
