The Ruling on Letting Garments Hang Below the Ankles When It Is Not Out of Arrogance

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on letting garments hang below the ankles (isbal) if it is not out of arrogance?

Answer:
No, letting garments hang below the ankles (isbal) is not permissible,
Whatever hangs below the ankles is in the Fireما نزل عن الكعبين فهو في النار
, so it is not permissible to let what one wears hang below the ankles. If it is accompanied by arrogance, the matter is more severe and the sin is greater. Yes, letting garments hang below the ankles (isbal) itself is forbidden and a sin, but if it is accompanied by arrogance, the matter is more severe, may Allah protect us from that. Yes.
