Benefits and Issues:
Dragging the lower garment means that the cloth is hung so low that it reaches the ground and, while walking, it keeps touching the earth.
For men, doing so is forbidden (haram).
For women, this is permissible because it serves as a means of covering (purdah) for her; in this way, her feet remain hidden from the gaze of non-mahram men.
