Question: Assalam alaykum

Can I wear the same clothes I was wearing before performing a ghusl (ritual bath)?

Answer: Wa alaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,

Yes, you can wear the same clothes, namely, the clothes you became ritually impure in, after the bath. But you should remove any filth first before praying in them.

And Allah Most High alone knows best.
