Question : Take it, O need, yes. Yes, she says: What is the meaning of this hadith, Honorable Shaykh? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade a man from putting on his sandals while standing?

Answer : It means that a man should not put on his sandals while standing, but rather, if he wants to put them on, he should sit down. This applies to sandals that require tightening and tying, because if a person wants to put them on and needs to tighten and tie them while standing, they might fall to the ground. He would then struggle with them in this manner. As for the sandals we have now, which do not require tightening or tying, and the most one has to do is put his foot into the sandal, the prohibition does not apply to them. Allah knows best. May Allah reward you, and thank you, sister.
