Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, some people let their garments hang down. When they are advised to stop doing so, they say, “I do not intend arrogance,” and they continue with it, even though they are students of knowledge. What is your advice to them?
Answer:
Did you hear this? Did you hear that letting the garment hang down is what falls below the ankles? If it is accompanied by arrogance, it is more strictly forbidden. If it is not accompanied by arrogance, it is still forbidden, and he commits a sin.
