The Limits of Isbal in Garments, Trousers, and Coats

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The brother Muhammad asks: Honorable Shaykh, is isbal only in garments? Does that include trousers and coats?

Answer:
All clothing for a man must not hang below the ankles. If it hangs below the ankles, that is the forbidden isbal. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whatever is below the ankles is in the Fireما كان أسفل الكعبين فهو في النار
, whether it is a thobe, an izar, trousers, a coat, or anything else. Yes.
