The Ruling on Praying in Tight-Fitting Clothing
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The first message in this episode is from a listener, our brother Abu 'Uwaniyyah. We addressed some of his questions in a previous episode, and in this episode he asks and says: What is the ruling on men praying in tight-fitting clothing? And should one who wears them lead people in prayer?
Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon the Messenger of Allah, and upon his family and his Companions, and upon those who follow his guidance.
As for the answer: It is disliked for both men and women to wear tight-fitting clothing. 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, so the prayer is valid. However, it is disliked for the believer to wear such tight-fitting clothing. Likewise, the believing woman should wear clothing that is moderate between tight and loose; this is what is appropriate. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
