Stepping on a long garment unintentionally

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Sometimes my garment is long, so I step on it unintentionally, and it is not with the intention of arrogance. Am I sinful for doing so?

Answer:
Yes, you are sinful for doing so, and this is part of isbal (letting a garment hang below the ankles). The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whatever is below the ankles is in the Fireما كان أسفل الكعبين فهو في النار
. As for when it is accompanied by arrogance, that is more severe in punishment and more strictly forbidden. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
