There is nothing wrong with placing one foot over the other.
Q: What constitutes arrogance?
The Shaykh: And it is not an act of arrogance.
Q: Sitting on a chair and placing one's foot on the knee?
The Shaykh: If the private parts are not exposed, there is nothing wrong with it; that is, there is nothing wrong with that sitting posture, provided the private parts are kept covered.
