Effect of smoke on ones clothes

Question

(#053)

Assalamualaikum 

I just had a question – I washed my clothes and hung them outside to dry yesterday, and this morning my neighbours were roasting a pig in their yard and when I bought my clothes back (this afternoon) there is a faint smell of smoke in them now. Is it permissable for me to wear the washed clothes or must they be washed again?
