A woman praying in her regular clothes without an abaya

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is it permissible for a woman to pray the obligatory prayer in her regular clothes if only her face and hands are exposed, if she prays without an abaya?

Answer:
If her clothes are pure, cover her body, and are loose-fitting, there is nothing wrong with that, except if she goes out; in that case, she should use a large outer garment over her clothes or a covering abaya over her clothes. As for as long as she is in her home and is covering herself in prayer, she prays in her clothes. Yes.
