If one is praying salaah, and when he goes to ruku and sujud his lower back will become vissible (because of the shirt he is wearing is to short, so it flows out of his trousers when he bends to ruku and sujud)
Does this make the salaah invalid ? Or is it makruh tahrimi/tanzihi ?

If one is praying salaah, and when he goes to ruku and sujud his lower back will become vissible (because of the shirt he is wearing is to short, so it flows out of his trousers when he bends to ruku and sujud)

Does this make the salaah invalid ? Or is it makruh tahrimi/tanzihi ?

Ml. Zakariyya bin Ahmed · Accepted Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

If a quarter of a limb of the Aurah opens up in Salaah for the duration of a Rukn (ie. The time it takes to say three Tasbeehat), then the Salaah will be invalid. If it opened for less than that period, the Salaah will remain intact. If one intentionally opens the Aurah in Salaah, the Salaah will terminate immediately.
