Question
When we go fishing, we don a wader outfit which is a waterproof garment reaching as far as the chest. It is a one-piece outfit enclosing the feet as well. Is wudhu valid if masah is made on the 'shoe' section of the outfit? Is Salaat permissible in this outfit? Some Maulanas whom we asked said that both masah and Salaat in this outfit are permissible. Is this correct?
Answer
It is not permissible to make masah on this outfit and it is not permissible to perform Salaat with this hideous outfit. The Salaat should be repeated since it is struck into the face of the musalli by the Malaaikah. This type of Salaat is barred from entering into the heavens. See detailed explanation on our website.
