Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Among some of the young men, it is common to wear clothing that is above the knee, and perhaps it exposes part of the thigh. He asks: Is this permissible, and what is its ruling?
Answer:
It is not permissible. The knee is part of the awrah (the part of the body that must be covered). Yes. So the awrah is from the knee and what is above it, and the knee is part of the awrah. The limit is included in the limited area.
