Question:
Salam aleykum
I am wondering, when going into sajda (prostration) if you lift you pants before doing this, is this makruh (undesirable) and would you have to repeat your salah ?
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
When prostrating for the sajda, it is makruh to pull up your skirts or your trouser cuffs. Though the namaz/salat performed with makruhs is sahih, one will not receive all the blessings promised.
