Offering Salah in a garment with short sleeves


A: It is permissible for men to offer Salah in a garment with short sleeves but if the sleeves go down to the wrist, it will be better. Allah (Exalted be He) says: O Children of Adam! Take your adornment (by wearing your clean clothes), while praying [and going round (the Tawâf of) the Ka‘bah,] As for women, it is obligatory for them to cover their entire body during Salah except the face and hands if no Ajnaby (a man other than a husband or unmarriageable male relatives) is present. However, if an Ajnaby is present, they must cover their entire body even the face and the hands.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
