Effect Of Impurity On Clothes On Salah

[Dr. Irfan Shahzad]

He did mention impuirities to be removed before Salah

نماز کے لیے جن چیزوں کا اہتمام ضروری ہے ، وہ یہ ہیں :

نماز پڑھنے والا نشے میں نہ ہو ،

وہ اگر عورت ہے تو حیض ونفاس کی حالت میں نہ ہو،

وہ باوضو ہو اور حیض و نفاس یا جنابت کے بعد اُس نے غسل کر لیا ہو ،

However, there is no mention of the purity of clothes because it is not a prerequisite, as such. One needs to have clean clothes but there is no restriction on how clean they should be. A small amount of impurity is allowed by Fuqaha, which means no absolute ruling is available in this regard from Shariah.

[Mustabshir Sadik]

But I want to infer from ghamidi saab’s writing that pure clothes are not a prerequisite of salah.

[Dr. Irfan Shahzad]

Absence of its mentioning at this point is clear evidence that this is not a prerequisite for Salah. However it doesn’t mean that one should not take care of wearing clean clothes.
