Question
I would like to know if one is required to sleep with ones Kippa on?
Answer
To the best of my knowledge, there is no halachic basis to sleep with a Kippa on, though many people have such a custom, and some even have extra large sleeping Kippot which won't fall off. I personally do not have such a Kippa.
