Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And regarding, Your Eminence the Shaykh, the ruling on praying in slippers in our current time?
Answer:
If he prays in them and they are clean, there is nothing wrong with it. And if he takes them off so that the carpets are not stepped on, that is probably better, if Allah wills; because some people may be lax, and the carpets may be stepped on, and the mosques have carpets. But if he checks his slippers and prays in them, there is nothing wrong with it.
