The answer

In summary, the ruling on the unintentional uncovering of part of the 'awrah during prayer falls into two categories:

1. Extensive or prolonged uncovering: This invalidates the prayer and necessitates its repetition. You are obliged to instruct anyone you see in this situation to repeat their prayer, as this falls under enjoining good. 2. Slight uncovering that is not extensive to the eye: This does not invalidate the prayer, and you are not obliged to object.
