Wearing Tight Trousers and the Validity of Prayer in Them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on wearing tight trousers? And is the prayer valid in them?
Answer:
The prayer is valid if nothing of the 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered) is exposed, meaning nothing is uncovered. However, tightness has two issues. First, you cannot perform the bowing and prostration in the required manner because they are tight. Second, they outline the size of the body parts, which involves fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). So avoid tightness. Yes.
