Q&A⚖️ Fiqh & Law

Is it permissible to pray in a house where we keep a cat? And if a cat hair is found on the worshipper’s clothes, is it true that the prayer becomes invalid, as I have heard?

Answer

In the name of Allah, it is permissible to pray, but one should know that the cat’s excrement is impure, and it is disliked if its place is free of its hair. If a hair is found on the worshipper’s clothing, then there is a doubt regarding the validity of the prayer. Allah knows best.
