The Ruling on Praying in a Torn Garment
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A continuation of the questions. The brother questioner says: If I pray in a torn garment, do I have to repeat the prayer?
Answer:
If the tear is large and part of the leg is visible from behind, yes, you repeat the prayer, because your wudu' (ablution) has become invalid. When part of the leg becomes visible, the dispensation ends. The dispensation is only for a covering of the leg that is difficult to remove. This is a leg that is exposed and much of it is visible. However, if the tear is small and the leg is not visible unless a person is very careful and looks closely, then this does not affect the prayer, if Allah wills. This is because it is rare for a garment to be completely seamless so that nothing of the leg is ever visible. A small amount does not affect it. Yes.

May Allah reward you,
