Does inserting the wires of loose trousers into the anus during prayer, then pulling them out, along with the doubt of passing wind, invalidate the prayer and necessitate its repetition? And do the clothes touching the anal opening become ritually impure?

Prayer is not invalidated by obsessive thoughts, nor by what the worshiper feels, such as threads touching the anal opening or similar sensations. These threads are not considered impure, and interrupting the prayer due to this is incorrect.
