Explore Dubai, one of the\u00a0<\/span>top desert destinations in the World<\/a>. Though the Middle East region has progressed, Arabs take pride in maintaining their historical dress code. It is customary for citizens of the six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations – Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, United Aran Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait to dress in traditional attire. The Arabic headscarf, known as the Ghutra, is worn by men in Arab countries. The Ghutra, often referred to as a Keffiyeh or Shemagh, is a symbol of national pride. Let us learn about the history of the Ghutra, explore its various styles and patterns, and different ways to wear this iconic headscarf.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The History of the Ghutra dates back to the pre-Islamic era. Bedouins used it to safeguard themselves from the heat and sandstorms while migrating from Saudi Arabia. Some believe it was worn by military personnel during the British Protectorate of the United Kingdom. The Guthra was made from goat or camel hair, and the Agal from twisted wool or camel hair.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Choose a Ghutra that suits the occasion. For a formal function, you can wear a white ghutra. The checkered Ghutra can be worn at an informal function (at a friend’s home).<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Lay the Ghutra flat on a surface and fold it into a triangle. Ensure that the edges are even to achieve a symmetrical look when worn.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Take the long part of the triangle-shaped Ghutra and bring it across your forehead, covering the top of your head.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Fold the Ghutra into a triangle and place the point at the back of your head. Iron it to achieve a crisp point at the forehead. Place the Agal to keep the point in place. To keep the Guthra in place, hold one end from the middle. Next, fold it to form the cobra hood’s first point. Repeat this on the other side. This style resembles the venomous reptile cobra.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
