Alaa bin Abdur Rahman narrates: I heard my father narrating this. I was present in the company of Sayyiduna Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him). I asked him: Have you heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) say anything regarding the lower garment (izaar)? He replied: I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "The lower garment of a believing servant should reach the middle of his shin, and there is no sin upon what is between that and the ankles. But whatever is below the ankles will be in the Hellfire. Allah Almighty will not look with mercy at the person who lets his lower garment hang out of pride."

Narrated Abdur Rahman: I asked Abu Saeed al-Khudri about wearing lower garment. He said: You have come to the man who knows it very well. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The way for a believer to wear a lower garment is to have it halfway down his legs and he is guilty of no sin if it comes halfway between that and the ankles, but what comes lower than the ankles is in Hell. On the day of Resurrection. Allah will not look at him who trails his lower garment conceitedly.
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues: ➊ It is forbidden (haram) for men to wear their trousers, waistcloth (tehband), or pajamas, etc., below the ankles, and to become entangled in meaningless interpretations out of negligence and ignorance is arrogance (takabbur).
➋ The feet that are below the ankles... ... ... ... ... or... ... ... ... the garment that hangs down... ... ... ... ... are in the Hellfire, and the garment will drag its wearer along with it.
➌ Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, not looking towards the servant is a sign of His wrath.

´It was narrated from ‘Ala bin ‘Abdur-Rahman that his father said:` “I said to Abu Sa’eed: ‘Did you hear anything from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) concerning the lower wrap?’ He said: ‘Yes. I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: ‘The lower wrap of the believer should come to mid-calf, but there is no sin on him if it comes between that point and the ankle. But whatever is lower than the ankle is in the Fire.’ And he said three times: ‘Allah will not look at the one who lets his lower wrap drag out of vanity.’”
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
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.
