The father's responsibility for his young sons letting their garments hang below the ankles
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: I have sons, and some of their garments are long. Does the sin attach to me for that, knowing that they have not yet reached puberty, or are they not held accountable until they reach puberty? I ask for guidance in this matter, and may Allah keep you safe?
Answer:
It is obligatory to raise the children according to the Sunnah and not leave them to contradict the Sunnah. You are responsible for them; their father is the one responsible for them. He must prevent them from letting their garments hang below the ankles because he is responsible for them. Just as he orders them to pray, separates them in their beds, and strikes them when they reach ten years of age to teach them ritual purity, he must teach them the Sunnah regarding clothing and prevent them from what is forbidden in clothing. Yes.
