Performing Salaah with clothing that have pictures of animate objects
Question
I read that using clothing with animate pictures are haram. Are we allowed to read salaah with a picture of an animal but it doesn't have the eyes drawn on it e.g. like a puma tracksuit pants?
Answer
It is impermissible to perform Salaah with such clothing that have pictures of animate objects on it.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
