The ruling on praying while wearing gloves in winter
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks and says: When a Muslim wears gloves on his hands in the winter season, is it permissible for him to pray while wearing them? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Or, if one has not performed wudu, it is necessary. And they used to leave it. There is no objection to that. And look, if he needs them during prostration, how should the hands be positioned? Should they be under the chest or on the sides? The hands are placed at the level of the shoulders, with the fingers spread out on the ground or on the prayer mat, and the fingers extended toward the qiblah; this is the position of the hands. And he separates the two bones, keeping his elbows away from his sides, rather than bringing them close together, if possible and if it does not bother the person next to him.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
