I know I have asked this before, but I did not get a practical response about it. It's about a hadith which says that we can't wear trousers when praying unless we have an izar or thobe or something hanging over them. My parents don't want me to start wearing Asian or Arab stuff, and, as I said before, there are a lot of chavvy people around where I live that would at the least shout abuse at me.
I can't keep something in my bag and put it on when I pray, that approach just doesn't work.
I know I have asked similar questions before, but this is simply because problem issues have shrunk down to three things:
Islamic clothes
trimming pubes (people think you are gay if you do that)
Not having a proper Quran teacher (or any Islamic teachers)
People not recognising I that I am a Muslim
If you want to answer these things too, go ahead...
Akhi, nobody of the scholars in the link said that the prayer of a person with tight clothes is unvalid. If you pray in tight pants your prayer is still valid so long as they cover the area from the navel to the knees. Noone of the scholars in the link said that the prayer is invalid.
As for this concern:
trimming pubes (people think you are gay if you do that)
How would anyone find out?
Not having a proper Quran teacher (or any Islamic teachers)
That is a bit of a problem. Start out by trying to perfect your pronounciation of the arabic letters. Here is a great site:
There you can practice on basic tajwid (proper recitation of the Qur'an).
And as for people recognising you as a Muslim... I'd suggest you look at this statement from Shaykh al-Islam ibn Taymiyah:
“If the Muslim lives in a disbelieving country, whether or not that state is hostile with the Muslim states, he will not be obligated to expose himself as different than them. This is on account of the difficulties that doing so can pose. Indeed, it might become preferable or even obligatory for him to conform to their outward standards of appearance if there is a benefit for the faith in doing so like inviting them to Islam, a prevention of difficulties for the Muslims, or the realization of any other wholesome intention.” [Iqtidâ’ al-Sirât al-Mustaqîm (176)]

Akhi, if you pray naked, is it valid?
The path is long but I hope we meet,
After the grave and the Day, in paradise in bliss upon a reclined seat.
A traveler traveling - travelled from shirk to tawheed,
If I'm remembered for anything - let it be the Mercy I seek.

I have established that. But one of the scholars in the link I oringinally posted said it was invalid, and I want to understand why they disagree with each other.
I also want to know if it is sinful to have regular trousers on outside prayer. In the west, trousers are normally quite narrow, so tight trousers are things like jeans and tracksuit trousers. But in all Islamic cultures, trousers are very wide by western standards. So when the prophet told us not to wear tight trousers, was he refering to really tight trousers, or regular ones?
i thought khakis trousers are wider....and not tight.
25:36 And the true servants of the Most Merciful are those who walk the earth with humility and when the ignorant address them, they respond with words of peace.
issue on izar......theres a hadith from bukhari.....am not sure if it help u not....
ibn umar said that the prophet said 'he who traits his dress in pride on the grounds, Allah will not look at him on the day of resurrection.'
Thereupon Abu Bakr said "O Allah's messenger, my izar gets loose, until i tie it(again). And Allah's messenger said 'tou are not one of those who do this out of pride.'
All i hope is for my mums happiness.Shes my light.Shes my dunya.Her tears are my weakness.Her sadness breaks my heart.She is my mirror.A mirror that keeps me alive.Without her am nothing.shes my saaya.How can i leave her.I pray to Allah(swt) to keep me with her forever inshAllah.
you are considered following sunnah and a hygienic person
