Question:
He says: If I appointed a man to lead the prayer, and then it became clear to me during the prayer that he was letting his garment hang below the ankles, what is the ruling on my prayer?
Answer:
The prayer is valid, if Allah wills, even if he is letting his garment hang below the ankles, because he is a Muslim. I mean, the one who lets his garment hang below the ankles is not a disbeliever; this is a sin. Letting the garment hang below the ankles is a sin, and the prayer is valid, but he commits a sin by letting it hang below the ankles.
