The Ruling on Praying in Tight-Fitting Clothing
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on praying in tight-fitting clothes for men? And is it permissible for one who wears them to lead people in prayer?
Answer:
Wearing tight-fitting clothes is disliked for both men and women. The prescribed manner is for clothing to be moderate, neither so tight that it reveals the size of the private parts, nor so loose, but somewhere in between.
As for the prayer, it is valid if the clothing covers the body, but it is disliked for a believer to wear such tight-fitting clothes, and the same applies to a believing woman. The clothing should be moderate between tight and loose. This is what is recommended.
