Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you for this matter. He says: My mother is elderly and does not cover her hands and feet in prayer. What is the ruling on her prayer?
Answer:
Her prayer is not valid. She has to cover her entire body, except for her face, if there are no non-mahram men present, in which case she may uncover it. However, if there are men present who are not her mahram, she must cover her entire body, including her face, hands, and feet, even if she is elderly. Yes.
