Reading Salaah in a tight fitting outfit

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Is Salaah valid if a man reads in a tight fitting outfit?

Bismillaah

A: If the body is revealed where even the satr area; which for a man is from the navel to the knee becomes absolutely distinct and clear, then the namaaz must be repeated.

  باب شروط الصلاة . . . ( و ) الرابع ( ستر عورته ) ووجوبه عام ولو في الخلوة على الصحيح إلا لغرض صحيح وله لبس ثوب نجس في غير صلاة ( وهي للرجل ما تحت سرته إلى ما تحت ركبته ) وشرط أحمد ستر أحد منكبيه أيضا (الدر المختار1/404)

( وعادم ساتر ) لا يصف ما تحته

قال الشامي في رد المحتار: قوله ( لا يصف ما تحته ) بأن لا يرى منه لون البشرة احترازا عن الرقيق ونحو الزجاج (رد المحتار1/410)
