Question: What is the ruling upon young children
lengthening/wearing their garments below their ankles?
Shaykh Sālih al Fawzān حفظه
الله
Answer:
It is not permissible for men/boys to wear their garments below their ankles,
because this is ‘isbāl’ in relation to the male. The Prophet Salallaahu alayhi
wa Sallam said, “That which is below the ankles is in the Fire.” (Al-Bukhārī)
As
for the women, that which is requested from her, is to lengthen her garment in
order to cover the feet and heels. It is required from her to loosen her
garment from behind to the extent that it covers her heels. However, nowadays
the affair has become the opposite. The men lengthen their garments below their
ankles, and the women raise their garments and show their shins, or some of
them show their legs/thighs, and this is from Shaytān.
