He said: "Whatever is the size of the palm of a hand, there is nothing against him; if it is more than that, I dislike it, but if he prays in it, he is not required to repeat [the prayer], due to what the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) granted as a concession to al-Zubayr and 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf regarding a silk shirt, on account of an itch they both suffered from."
