I own a leather jacket and a leather wallet. Both of these things are from the skin of a cow that was probably not sluaghtered according to Sharia. Is my prayer invalid by having the leather jacket on, or having my wallet in my pocket. Jazak Allah khair.
Answer:
In principle, tanned skin of an animal besides a pig is pure. It is
permissible to wear a leather jacket and keep the wallet from tanned cow
skin.
