[Ruling on leaving the congregational prayer due to the absence of a (shamagh)]
The questioner: If the prayer time arrives and a person does not have a (shamagh), for example, if it is being washed or has not dried yet, and it is the custom of people to criticize one for attending without a shamagh, is this an excuse for leaving the congregational prayer?The Shaykh: This is not an excuse.First: This is a rare issue; it is very rare for a person to have only one (shamagh) that he is washing right now and has not yet dried.
And secondly: It is permissible for him to pray while bald.And if it happens that people say: Why did it come about this way? He should pray the second prayer and bring the shamagh.
The questioner: If he does not have a garment, should he remain naked in the house?The Shaykh: No.
He has trousers and a T-shirt.
So, this may be an excuse if he is unable to face the people in the public mosque wearing only trousers and a T-shirt.
