Question

During salath my hoody sometimes go on. That is wrealy annoying, so i do it off.

So my question is, is it better to keep it on or do i have to put it off?

I know that it's better to not scratch your nose etc.

Please response fast so i know if i do it wrong or good.

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

To perform Salah with concentration is greatly emphasised. Before performing Salah, remove all possible distractions in your Salah. If the hoody is distracting your attention in Salah, simply don’t wear the hoody.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
