Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Does this apply to the one wearing trousers who is more deserving of leading the prayer, and the one wearing a thawb? Which of the two is more deserving?
The Shaykh:
It is said that it is lowly, whether the upper part of his body is the same as the lower part, or whether it is the same with the infal or the entire thawb. Yes.
The questioner:
It is the preference of the Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
If the one whose lower body is covered but whose upper body is exposed, he is more deserving than the one who covers his entire body. More deserving, yes.
