Scholars have agreed on the prohibition of praying with one's garment tucked up, or one's sleeve rolled up, or similar, or with one's hair braided or tucked under a turban, and so forth, due to the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "I have been commanded to prostrate on seven bones: the forehead – and he pointed with his hand to his nose – the hands, the knees, and the ends of the feet, and not to tuck up clothes or hair." This is a detested act (makruh tanzeeh). So, if one prays in such a state, he has done wrong, but his prayer is valid.
