Is letting the garment hang below the ankles one of the major sins?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh: Is letting the garment hang below the ankles one of the major sins, and is it permissible to boycott them?

The Shaykh : Letting the garment hang below the ankles is one of the major sins, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) threatened with punishment for it, saying:
It was narrated from Abu Dharr that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "There are three to whom Allah will not speak on the Day of Resurrection nor will He look at them or purify them, and theirs will be a painful torment." I said: "Who are they, O Messenger of Allah? For they are indeed losers." He said: "The one who lets his garment hang beneath his ankles, the one who reminds another of what he has given him, and the one who sells his product by means of false oaths." ثلاثة لا يكلمهم الله يوم القيامة ولا ينظر إليهم ولا يزكيهم ولهم عذاب أليم قالوا : من هم يا رسول الله خابوا وخسروا ؟ قال : المسبل والمنان والمنفق سلعته بالحلف الكاذب
Sunan Ibn Majah 2208Sahih (Darussalam)
Therefore, it is one of the major sins.
