The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: What is the ruling on sewing long garments for men, and is it sufficient?
The Shaykh:
This is not permissible; it is forbidden. If he says to you, “Make my garment long,” say, “No.” Say, “No, leave it to the ankle.” Do not sew long garments, for that facilitates sin and transgression. Yes.
The questioner:
He asks: Is it sufficient to place a sign in the shop indicating the prohibition of isbal (letting garments hang below the ankles) only?
The Shaykh:
No. If he says to you, “Make my garment drag on the ground,” say, “No.” This is not permissible. Do not obey him. If he says, “I don’t want to have it sewn with you,” say to him, “Go away.” Say to him, “Go away.” I do not sew what is forbidden. Yes.
