Question: What is the ruling on praying while wearing silk clothes? Will the prayer be valid or not?
Answer: Wearing silk is prohibited for men, whether in prayer or outside of prayer. However, if someone prays while wearing silk clothes, their prayer remains valid in terms of the act itself. This issue is similar to someone praying while wearing clothes with pictures of living beings. The prayer remains valid, but such clothing is prohibited both in prayer and outside of it.
