Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on letting a garment hang below the ankles if it is not for the sake of arrogance?
Answer:
It is not permissible to let a garment hang below the ankles in any case. However, if he does it for the sake of arrogance, the sin is even greater. As for if he lets it hang and does not intend arrogance—though this is unlikely, that he would let it hang without intending it—but hypothetically, if he lets it hang and does not intend arrogance, it is forbidden, based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and he did not restrict it to arrogance. Yes.

Whatever is below the ankles is in the Fire
ما كان اسفل الكعبين فهو في النار
