What Garments Are Permissible for Prayer and What Garments Are Not
وَ سَأَلَ سَمَاعَةُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنْ تَقْلِيدِ اَلسَّيْفِ فِي اَلصَّلاَةِ فِيهِ اَلْغِرَاءُ وَ اَلْكَيْمُخْتُ فَقَالَ «لاَ بَأْسَ مَا لَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ مَيْتَةٌ.
Sama’a ibn Mehran asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام about wearing a sword during prayer that has glue or leather (adhesive substances, such as glue made from animal parts) on it. Imam عليه السلام replied: "There is no problem as long as you do not know that it is from a dead (non-slaughtered) animal”.
