What Garments Are Permissible for Prayer and What Garments Are Not

فَأَمَّا اَلْحَدِيثُ اَلَّذِي رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «لاَ بَأْسَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ اَلرَّجُلُ وَ اَلنَّارُ وَ اَلسِّرَاجُ وَ اَلصُّورَةُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ لِأَنَّ اَلَّذِي يُصَلِّي لَهُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ اَلَّذِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ.
As for the narration reported from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام stating: "There is no harm if a man prays while the fire, the lamp, or an image is in front of him, for the One to whom he is praying is closer to him than that which is in front of him,"
