حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي رَجُلٌ أَصِيدُ ، " أَفَأُصَلِّي فِي الْقَمِيصِ الْوَاحِدِ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، وَازْرُرْهُ وَلَوْ بِشَوْكَةٍ " .
Narrated Salamah ibn al-Akwa: I said: Messenger of Allah, I am a man who goes out hunting; may I pray in a single shirt? He replied: Yes, but fasten it even if it should be with a thorn.

Brief Explanation
It is evident that what is meant here is the specific long shirt (qamees) of the Arabs. Even if there is no trouser (shalwar) or sheet (chadar) underneath it, the prayer is valid, provided that the ‘awrah (private parts that must be covered) is completely covered. If there is a fear that the ‘awrah may become exposed, then it has been commanded to tie it securely.

632. Commentary:
It is evident that what is meant here is the specific long shirt (qamees) of the Arabs. If there is no lower garment (shalwar) or sheet (chadar) beneath it, the prayer is still valid, provided that the ‘awrah (private parts that must be covered) is completely concealed. If there is a risk of exposure, then it has been commanded to tie it securely.

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
766. Commentary: If the shirt (qamees) is long, reaching below the knees, so that during the performance of any pillar (rukun) the knees are not exposed from the front or back, then with this precaution one may pray in it, provided that the front collar is buttoned so that the awrah (private area) is not exposed from the front.
