حَدَّثَنِي حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ مَالِك ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " كَانَتْ تُصَلِّي فِي الدِّرْعِ وَالْخِمَارِ "

A woman asked Hazrat Urwah bin Zubair that it is difficult for me to tie an izar, can I pray in a shirt and head covering? Urwah replied that yes, when the shirt is quite large.
