The questioner : This is a listener to the program who sent a message containing a set of questions. In the first question, he asks: Is it permissible to pray in tight-fitting clothes for men, and is it forbidden? Please issue a ruling on this.
The Shaykh : Yes, praying in tight-fitting clothes is valid if they are thick and do not reveal the skin. However, a person should not wear clothes that are so tight that they outline the parts of his body; rather, he should wear somewhat loose clothes so that the parts of the body are not revealed, whether he is a man or a woman. The scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) have explicitly stated that it is disliked to wear tight clothing that reveals the outlines of the body. Yes.
