Question

I had a leather jacket and I used to pray with it on. I recently found out that it was made of pig leather. I know that it is impermissible to wear it but will my salaats count or do I have to make kaza for them.

Answer

Salaat is not valid in a pig leather jacket. It is necessary to make Qadha for the past Salaat performed in the leather jacket made of pig skin.
