540. It was narrated from Mu'âwiyah bin Abu Sufyân that he asked his sister Umm Habibah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ: "Did the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ever offered prayer in a garment in which he had sexual intercourse?" She said: "Yes, if there was nothing noxious on it." (Sahih)

Arabic text

540 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ حُدَيْجٍ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أُخْتَهُ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، هَلْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي فِي الثَّوْبِ الَّذِي يُجَامِعُ فِيهِ؟ قَالَتْ: «نَعَمْ، إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ فِيهِ أَذًى»

Commentary

It shows that we do not have to have separate clothing because of sexual activity. The garment on one's body does not become impure because of ritual impurity.
