The Shaykh : The Hafiz Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani (may Allah have mercy on him) spoke about this issue with much fiqh, and among the things I benefited from him, and in reality, you must understand this and find a place in your hearts to understand this truth. He mentions that in some hadiths, and this is... in some lessons, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he said: , or: Muwatta Malik 48:11; when the Messenger (peace be upon him) mentioned this hadith, some of the women understood, and I think it was Umm Salama, that this hadith includes women as well. And this is the authentic Arabic understanding; because "whoever" is from what? It is from the words of inclusion and generality, and it is... whether it is a man or a woman.

He said: until the covering that the wise Lawgiver ordered for women is achieved. She said: O Messenger of Allah, the wind comes and lifts the garment. He said: a second handspan, meaning, .
The point here, which the Hafiz Ibn Hajar drew attention to, is that if it is not permissible for a woman to exceed what the Lawgiver has allowed, then it is even more so that it is not permissible for a man to exceed what the Lawgiver has allowed in lengthening the garment, and that is to what is above the two ankles; this is the final limit; soSunan Abi Dawud 4093Sahih (Al-Albani) as he (peace and blessings be upon him) said.
This is what I wanted to remind you of on the occasion of the previous hadith, and now we receive some questions, and if they are numerous, we will answer some of what is feasible.

Whoever drags his garment out of arrogance, Allah (Mighty and Majestic) will not look at him on the Day of Resurrection.
مَن جرَّ إزاره خُيَلاء لم ينظر الله - عز وجل - يوم القيامة إليهOn the Day of Rising, Allah the Blessed, the Exalted, will not look at

فتطيل شبرًاlengthen it by a handspan

ولا تزِدْنَ عليهThe point here, which the Hafiz Ibn Hajar drew attention to, is that if it is not permissible for a woman to exceed what the Lawgiver has allowed, then it is even more so that it is not permissible for a man to exceed what the Lawgiver has allowed in lengthening the garment, and that is to what is above the two ankles; this is the final limit; so
but what comes lower than the ankles is in Hell
ما أسفل الكعبين فهو في النارThis is what I wanted to remind you of on the occasion of the previous hadith, and now we receive some questions, and if they are numerous, we will answer some of what is feasible.
