Question:
This questioner says: What is the ruling on shortening garments above the middle of the calf?
Answer:
No, that is not showing off. Showing off is when it is above the ankle. That is, in a society where people’s clothing reaches the ankle, do not differ from them, for that would be showing off. Do not differ from the clothing of the society, as long as it conforms to the Sunnah. Dress like them; do not differ from them, for that would be showing off among them. Yes.
