Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner, Abu 'Abdullah, says: I hope our father, Your Eminence, will direct a word to those workers and some of the people who come to the mosques in their tattered clothes, which have some oil in them. The verse says:
O children of Adam, take your adornment at every masjidيَا بَنِي آدَمَ خُذُوا زِينَتَكُمْ عِندَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍ
[Al-A'raf 7:31]


Answer:
Yes, these people prepare specific garments for prayer which they wear when they pray, if they are able to do so. If they are not able, they pray in their regular clothes, but they stand in a corner of the mosque so as not to inconvenience the other worshippers. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah bless you.
