Is it permissible to pray in shoes?

Question:
The last question from our brother says: Is it permissible to pray in shoes? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
Yes, rather, it is recommended; because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray in his sandals, and he commanded praying in sandals, and commanded to differ from the Jews; because they do not pray in their sandals, nor in their leather socks, but after looking into them before entering the mosque, so that they are sound, with no harm in them. If they are sound with no harm in them, then the best is to pray in them.
But considering the mosques that are carpeted, there may be some dirt in them, or something that harms the worshippers, so it is better to put them in another place at the door, or in another place so that people are not harmed by them, and the dirt, dust, and the like that may be in them; out of consideration for the worshippers, and for the carpets placed in the mosques, so that they are not defiled, and so that the worshippers are not repelled from praying in congregation. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
