Arabic text

764 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ أَنَّهُ «رَأَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ فِي بَيْتِ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ وَاضِعًا طَرَفَيْهِ عَلَى عَاتِقَيْهِ»

Commentary

A man may offer prayer in one garment when one is in a state of dire need. If it is small, it should be tied from the navel up to the knees. If the garment is long enough, it should be passed across under the armpits and its right end draped on the left shoulder and its left end on the right shoulder. If it is feared that it might get undone, the garment may be tied in a knot upon the neck or it may be left open.
