3 We were told by the Ulama that to wear a turban is a great Sunnah of our beloved Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

Answer

The turban is Mustahab. Undoubtedly it is Sunnah. One Sunnah should not be compared to another Sunnah. Whoever wishes to don the turban will gain much thawaab. Whoever does not wear turban should not be castigated. Such castigation is transgression of the prescribed limits of the Shariah.

ALWAYS FEAR, BE IN

TREPIDATION

Have no confidence in your knowledge nor in your haal (spiritual state) nor on your maqaam (status). In fact, one cannot have confidence on one's greatest treasure, viz., Imaan. All are enchained by the Qadr of Allah Ta'ala. No one knows what has been decreed for him. The issue is extremely delicate and fearful. Never be proud of one's good state nor despise others because of their evil state. No one knows what his future will be.

(Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi) Even the Muqarrab Malaaikah (Jibraeel, Mikaaeel, Israafeel, Israaeel, etc.) are fearful of the hidden Plan of Allah Ta'ala. This fear was intensified when they witnessed the fall of Azaazeel who became Iblees after thousands of years of worship.
