Praying in Pants with Holes But ‘Awrah Is Not Visible from Outside

Question:

Assalamu'alaykum warahmatullahi wabarokatuh. I've already see the fatwa for question about hole in pants. But, what is the ruling when holes are found in every seam of pants? It's not only one hole, rather it's many but it's tiny. The awrah won't be visible from outside where as the inside is dark, but if I look from inside of the pants, I could see outside from the tiny seam hole?Shukron.

Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

What we understood from your statement is that the skin does not appear through those holes except after contemplation. Therefore, it does not prevent the validity of the prayer, for the garment behind which the skin does not appear except after contemplation is valid for prayer as stated by some scholars.

We advise you to avoid these whispers, ignore them, and seek to treat them.

For more benefit on whispers and how to repel them, please refer to Fatwa174507.

Allah Knows best.
