[Yyaqyped]

Ibn Abbas reported:The Messanger of Allah(s.a.w) had been commanded to prostrate on seven(bones) and forbidden to fold back hair and clothing(muslim,bukhari)
Then why people fold their pants for namaz?Do namaz not become makrohe tehrimi?
Please for the God sake anybody explain it.

[Stengapsept]

From these statements we have understood the following points: [1] To pray with the hair tied back and the clothes folded does not invalidate the salah; [2] to pray in such a manner is makruh tanzihi (against etiquette); [3] One should perform the salah in the most presentable manner; [4] the clothes and hair also prostrate before Allah Most High, thus they should not be held back from doing so; [5] it resembles the action of arrogant and proud people. http://www.deoband.org/2009/04/fiqh/...hes-for-salah/

[nuncEtedben]

According to the fuqahah of ahle sunnah it is makrohe tehrimi to fold izar for namaz not tanzeehi.

[Imagimifouxum]

dear moulana sahab... Q2) If someone folds their full sleeve shirt up to their elbow or folds there pants over the ankles does it makes the namaz makruk?

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful


Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

2. a) It is Makrooh Tahrimi to perform Salaah with the sleeves folded.

(احسن الفتاوى ج3 ص406,سعيد)
(فتاوى محمودية ج6ص651,فاروقية)

b) It is necessary to keep the pants/upper garment above the ankles by hemming it otherwise by folding it. A person will be sinful for allowing his upper garment to flow below his ankles. Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) has mentioned:

And Allah knows best

Wassalaamu `alaykum
