What Garments Are Permissible for Prayer and What Garments Are Not

وَ رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ يَقْطِينٍ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُمَا سَأَلاَهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ وَ اَلْمَرْأَةِ يَخْتَضِبَانِ أَ يُصَلِّيَانِ وَ هُمَا مُخْتَضِبَانِ بِالْحِنَّاءِ وَ اَلْوَسِمَةِ فَقَالَ «إِذَا أَبْرَزُوا اَلْفَمَ وَ اَلْمَنْخِرَ فَلاَ بَأْسَ.
Ali ibn Ja'far and Ali ibn Yaqtin asked Abu Al-Hasan Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim عليه السلام about whether a man and a woman may pray while dyed with henna or wasmah (a type of dye). Imam عليه السلام said: "If they expose the mouth and nostrils, there is no problem."
