The answer

Your relative's prayer in a garment with images is valid, although scholars dislike clothing with images. The Hanafis and Malikis consider it disliked (makruh), and according to the Hanafis, this dislike is removed by covering the image. The Shafi'is permit wearing clothes with images, as wearing them is considered a form of debasement for the image. As for the Hanbalis, their opinion varied between prohibition and dislike, citing the hadith "except for an imprint on a garment."
