1037. It was narrated that Ibn Abu Aws said: "My grandfather, Aws, used to perform prayer, and sometimes he would make a gesture while praying, and I would give him his sandals. He said: 'I saw the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ performing prayer in his sandals.'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

1037 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي أَوْسٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ جَدِّي أَوْسٌ، أَحْيَانًا يُصَلِّي، فَيُشِيرُ إِلَيَّ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ، فَأُعْطِيهِ نَعْلَيْهِ، وَيَقُولُ: «رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي فِي نَعْلَيْهِ»

Commentary

Prayer is permissible both barefoot and in sandals. However, if filth is seen soiling the sandals, prayer will not be in order with those shoes on until they are cleaned. If it is simply dust, then there is no cause for doubt in the permissibility of prayer.
