The ruling on letting the garment hang below the ankles and whether it differs based on the intention of arrogance

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Sabir, asks about the ruling on letting a garment hang below the ankles, and whether the ruling changes if the intention is arrogance or not.

Answer:
It is not permissible to let the garment hang below the ankles, whether it is the lower garment, the trousers, the clothes, the robe, or anything else that a man wears. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whatever is below the ankles is in the Fireما كان أسفل الكعبين فهو في النار
. If this is accompanied by arrogance, the sin is even greater.
