Is it permissible to pray barefoot?
Question
Is there a problem with praying barefoot? If so, what is the issue with that? Thank you
Answer
Hello,
One should not pray barefoot - as you would not appear this way before an important person, all the more so one should not stand this way in prayer before Hashem.
