Question

I am working in a warehouse. There are two cats here. I took care of them when they were 2 days now they are at 6 months. They play with me and jump on me. I just wanted to know that I have only one uniform at the same time in that uniform can I offer prayer?

Answer

If the clothing is paak, you can perform Salaah in it.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
