Do I have to wear my trousers above my ankles?

bismillah r-rahman r-rahim in al hamdulillah were covered for salat wa salam o allah rasool allah mustafa well I got a buddy lady notable among beholder method ah Bobby Arthur and Medina too far apart salam wa alaikum warahmatullah wabarakatuh along certain become on marhaban we're going to take a look at a question today on is Val and that is to to wear and it's especially for men it's about wearing the trousers

below the ankles as in they allow it to hang below so you've got you don't have your ankles uncovered whether you are wearing a trouser some trousers jeans or whether you are wearing some form of fob an Arabic type of dress or whether you're wearing something like shalwar kameez or whatever you have on if you allow the government to have covered your uncle's and hang below this is called is bad in Arabic I mean the verb s bella you speedo for what must be okay

and the same name it a little thought now the thing is is this Haram so to those of you who don't know this you it might explain the concept that when you've seen some people before they praise Allah they kind of fold up the their trousers or things like this and you may have wondered why are they doing that well it's in line with this thought that is Val is Haram we have their certain a hadith that speak on this and actually condemn this so this is why the question well first of all the answer

is that if it is not done with arrogance if it's not done as almost to demonstrate pride then in that case it is not how okay it may be or it may just be permissible and if it is Makarov we're talking about not a Haram category as some people categorize it Howell we're talking the Malika don't usually categorize things morrow as a harmless at macro which is still part of the permissible okay so just to kind of clarify and then I'll go

into this slightly that it is not Hara so you may way your your garments below or to cover the ankles for men and that is not Haram provided it is not done in a sentence of arrogance now let's take a look at some of the a hadith now they are some hadith where the Prophet Allah Islam has mentioned that he said man jabra Thorburn o in some narrations it says is our that whosoever drags is whether is our is the

type of I mean what they wore the Arabs were beneath in general they call that is a it's like a sarong and what the oh it could have been the long thoughts the jalabiya whatever you you want to call it today nowadays whether you want to call it chill verb or atho bow that is was the common dress of the Arabs back then and so the Prophet Allison mentions about who so if it drags a thobe or an either that in these different narrations but they are all quite similar that in some profs allowed the proselytes and says layer young

thought along alayhi Oman p.m. that Allah will not look at that person on the day of judgment in another word version it mentions that whoever does that and it says man John Rother bahu yella or butter on that whoever does this out of as I mentioned out of quail ax of pride or arrogance that Allah will not look at a person like that or that is in the Hellfire as it as he appears in some of the wordings so as you can see all of these are quite harsh a lot of these are

heavy are quite harsh and therefore it's led to this this issue that how can you allow anybody to wear the garment beneath any man to wear they got beneath the ankle when the hadith is so clear in condemning such things you see the answer is quite clear actually that every single narration mentions with it who yella or butterin or it mentions these things okay so the fact that

and they mean out of arrogance or pride or kind of looking down on other people these are the reasons these are the elements of terrain these things have caused it to be Hara okay now if that was not the it would not be Haram and you see there is a hadith we a worker or the law on he would often um his garment would kind of hang below

sometimes below the below the ankles and once or twice it was mentioned in front of the prophecy alum and he says he says in Nazari yes I mean I had a chef a that because at the time he was incredibly slim and the way he would tie the Azhar that it would kind of lower down to be below the ankles even though he would raise it sometimes but it would still Ultima I mean it would just naturally kind of

just guide down time to time so he complains about that to the process Ellison I'm saying that look because the hadith is so strong that this is what happens and the prophet sallallaahu Salim said to him in a hadith that less than me no okay and this is I mean it's it's transmitted it's in Sahil Bihari and it's transmitted in other books as well the processor item said say to him that a worker you are not from amongst oh okay and here the question arises that when

you're saying amongst them who are we talking about and we're talking about those people who are of that category that do that in with pride and pride here I mean by that a negative sense I don't mean because pride can also it's a neutral word in English I mean in fact it's more positive at times but in Arabic determine arrogance so in that arrogant sense of pride that's what the proselytism was talking about and this is where many ala ma have spoken clearly on it you have people like hypnotized Adel kata wani who is

known as young Malik in his race Allah where he says well I adore Roger is there a whole bottle on that a person should not kind of drag his garment out of arrogance well I thought bellman and clear that and aura of this type of pride this is really a corny little campaign and let it be to the the ankles as in above and that is better for the cloth and so on and then he says and he says that this the way he's kind of he's written it out mentioning he emphasizes he has written

the term Lee oil add oh butter and this is where a lot of the commentators have elaborated by saying that he thought the unknown year Jews live Raja lineage or atho Behar Amidala me except Italica Kiran Hodgman that if a person wasn't doing it out of this sense of arrogance that what we find is that it is permissible in that case and this is what many of the Illuma have mentioned especially within the man he met abused find it not the Bob he also went comment on that mentions that all of the rewires

they mentioned wheeler or both or things like this none of them or without that therefore we restrict this hadith to that understanding and similar similarly an imam and nowhere we mentioned very similar thing he says that yeah harem that it is haram lil hi Ella otherwise were you Cara Lee radial Allah otherwise it may just be mackerel okay so this is what you're seeing from a variety of of scholars on the matter

and and you have even a transmission from even it's a me and he shot her lambda he mentions where you could all is well armies from Navajo miss Bella Widow as well so are we world is our own a moment either can ala which in Louella and he then obviously goes into mentioning the motto fatima atonement as having a la jolla raha or sera have a doe-eyed min en Italica haram and then he says that a lot of them have said this and they mean by that to be Haram and he takes that stance that that is what it will be

although some of the ulema amongst them then say that look this the key the key point here is the element of keyboard and that is what as I mentioned many of the Ottoman like it not the bar and have it in modulus I learn and many of these orlimar explain this happy to be so with that people I hope that makes sense you are allowed to do that the question is really ties into context in our day and age it is not a sign of arrogance to have your garment cover

your ankle in fact it is seen as quite normal it the opposite the contrary to that would be seen as very weird in many places it would be seen as odd and it would attract unwarranted attention therefore it would be contrary to the MA acid the objectives of that ruling

anything I would say sometimes we see people who are so harsh about these rulings but I mean I've already mentioned with evidence and the ala man that I've said it whether it's in a Hydra whether it's I've mentioned for even after bar or a lottery and all and all of these other older man that I've spoken on on the matter now so that's quite clear however I in light of the the harshness that we see sometimes from people in condemning this in our societies where it's absolutely normal and it's seen as abnormal not to be doing it really is is almost it's it's

an underside ralien and it's it just shows an absence of understanding and comprehension when it comes to the mikasa of the sharia if anything I would say that this ruling in our society is better suited for people who seem to hang their trousers down below as in they they let it drop they don't tie them up properly and let it kind of drop below and I'm sure you've all seen this phenomenon if anything that is where they should really focus refocus the this understanding of the heavy as opposed to

the uncovering of the ankles so okay so that's once again in summary it is permissible as long as it is not done with an intention of arrogance which once again in our societies seldom exists - Zack Millar played with Salam alaikum warahmatullah - Hannah Burkett
