Follow-up to the question: The ruling on the prayer of one who realizes he has impurity on him during the prayer.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : In his prayer, if he knows that there is impurity on his garment, or if he was unaware and then finds out, let him remove that garment if he has something to cover himself with underneath it.
The questioner : The trousers, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : The trousers are easy, because the trousers have a shirt over them, is that not so? He removes the trousers and continues his prayer. Or, for example, if he has a shirt on and underneath it trousers and an undershirt, he removes the shirt. But if it is not possible, such as a man who has only one shirt on, and he realizes that this shirt is impure, or he sees the impurity in it while he was unaware of it before, then he must exit the prayer. The evidence for this is that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray wearing his sandals, then he removed his sandals, so the Companions removed their sandals. When the prayer ended, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) asked them: and he continued in his prayer. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you.

Why did you remove your sandals? They said: We saw you remove your sandals, so we removed ours. He said: Jibril came to me and informed me that there was filth in them, so I removed them.
لماذا خلعتم النعال ؟ قالوا : رأيناك خلعت نعليك فخلعنا نعالنا فقال : إن جبريل أتاني فأخبرني أن فيهما قذراً فخلعتهماThe questioner : May Allah reward you.
