Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the authenticity of this hadith, “There is no share for the ankles in the lower garment,” and is it forbidden to lengthen the garment until the ankles are covered?
Answer:
I do not know anything about this hadith, nor do I know. As for the ankle, it is the limit; it is the limit of the garment, and it does not go below it. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “What is below the ankles,” meaning that what covers the ankles is not a problem; what covers the ankles is not a problem. What is prohibited is what is below the ankles. Yes.
