Obedience to the Father in Letting Garments Hang Below the Ankles and Buying Long Clothes
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: My father orders me to let my garment hang below the ankles, and he buys me long clothes on the grounds that I am growing and getting taller quickly. Is it permissible for me to obey him in that?
Answer:
It is not permissible for you. There is no obedience to a created being in disobedience to the Creator. So it is not permissible for you to practice isbal, which is letting the garment hang below the ankles. Isbal is what hangs below the ankles. This is isbal, so it is not permissible for you to wear it.
