English translation

771. It was narrated that 'Uqbah bin 'Âmir said: "A silken Farrûj[1] was presented to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and he put it on and offered the prayer in it, then when he had finished the prayer he tore it off as if he disliked it and said: 'This is not befitting for those who have Taqwa.'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

770 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ وَعِيسَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ زُغْبَةُ، عَنِ اللَّيْثِ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَيْرِ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ قَالَ: أُهْدِيَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرُّوجُ حَرِيرٍ فَلَبِسَهُ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى فِيهِ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَنَزَعَهُ نَزْعًا شَدِيدًا كَالْكَارِهِ لَهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «لَا يَنْبَغِي هَذَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ»

Commentary

Prayer offered in silk does not require to be repeated, because no defect occurs in prayer; furthermore, none of its conditions, pillars, or compulsory elements is omitted. Silk's being forbidden is a different issue apart from prayer. In other words, the sin of using silk is one thing, while the correctness of prayer is another.
