The ruling on praying in a garment containing an image

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Or in a shemagh, does he repeat the prayer?

Answer:
The correct view is that he does not repeat it, but he changes his clothes, because this is not something that invalidates the prayer. It is generally prohibited to wear it at all, and the shayr is generally prohibited, but it does not invalidate the prayer. What invalidates it is what is prohibited within the prayer, such as talking, ritual impurity, and the like. As for if he prays in a garment with an image on it, or an iron garment, or a stolen garment, the correct view is that the prayer is valid, though there is disagreement among the scholars. However, the correct view is that the prayer is valid, while he is sinful, despite the fact that he has committed a sin. Yes.
