Does the prohibition of "katt" (tucking up) and "tashmir" (rolling up) include the collar of a blouse, a shirt, and the top of socks, or is it restricted to clothes that touch the ground during prostration?

The prohibition against tucking up clothes during prayer has two meanings: The first is that the tucking up is done for the sake of prayer. If it was done before prayer for some work, and then one prayed in that state, there is no harm. The second is to pray in clothes that are tucked up and folded, departing from their usual manner, whether the tucking up was for prayer or for something else. However, if the garment is manufactured in a tucked-up manner, or if its usual way of wearing it is like that, then this does not fall under the prohibited tucking up, such as tucking up the ghutra or the shemagh in a way that is part of the usual manner of dress.
