Is it permissible to wear clothing made from the skins of dead predatory animals?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Is it permissible to wear clothing made from the skins of dead predatory animals?

The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible to wear the skins of predatory animals, nor to ride on them, nor to use them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade that.

The questioner:
Then he says, may Allah preserve you, if one prays in them, is his prayer valid?

The Shaykh:
As long as it covers his 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered), his prayer is valid, but it is with prohibition and sin, like a stolen garment.
