Question

If one's father or mother has passed away, does one need to tear the pajamas at night, as is done with clothing worn during the seven days of mourning for a father or mother?

Answer

There is no need to tear the pajamas or nightshirt. Even if worn during the days of mourning for one's father and mother, as they are not considered significant garments.
