The ruling on praying behind one who wears tight trousers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on praying behind one who prays in tight trousers that are not loose?

Answer:
If it covers his 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered), his prayer is valid. However, it is better for him to pray in a garment or loose trousers that do not reveal the shape of his body. Also, tightness prevents him from sitting and moving during the prayer; it restricts him, so he should not wear them tight.
