The Ruling on Isbal and Praying Behind One Who Practices Isbal

Question:
A questioner says: May Allah reward you. Is isbal (letting a garment hang below the ankles) among the major sins? And does one pray behind a person who lets his garment hang below the ankles?

Answer:
Isbal is among the major sins because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) threatened with the Fire for it , and every sin for which one is threatened with the Fire is a major sin. This is one of the criteria for a major sin when making a choice. The one who practices isbal is not appointed as imam. However, if you come and they are praying and their imam is one who practices isbal, pray with them and do not abandon the congregational prayer. Yes.
