Hazrat Abul Mutawakkil (rahimahullah) reports that he had seen Hazrat Ibnu Umar (radhiyallahu ‘anhuma), and his lungi reached half his shin and his kurta reached above that (i.e. it was higher than the lungi), and the shawl he was wearing was higher than the kurta. [3]
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) reported that Nabi (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) had a Syrian topi. In another narration, Hazrat Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) reported that Nabi (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) had a white Syrian topi. [4]
Hazrat Hasan Basri (rahimahullah) says, “The Sahaabah (radhiyallahu ‘anhum) would make sajdah during salaah on their turbans and topis.” [5]
10. Men should not wear clothing that is tight fitting or body hugging. Rather, men should wear loose, flowing clothing. [6]
11. A man’s clothing (i.e. kurta, pants, lungi, etc.) should not flow beneath the ankles. Grave warnings have been sounded in the Mubaarak Ahaadith for the one who allows his garments to flow beneath his ankles. [7]
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that Hazrat Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “That portion of the lower garment which hangs beneath the ankles will be in the fire of Jahannum.” [8]
Hazrat Abu Zarr (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that Hazrat Nabi (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “Three types of people are such that Allah Ta‘ala will not speak to them on the day of Qiyaamah, nor will He look at them with the sight of mercy, nor will He purify and cleanse them of their sins, and a severe punishment awaits them.” Hazrat Abu Zarr (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) exclaimed, “Certainly such people are great losers and are doomed! Who are these people, O Rasul of Allah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam)?” Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) replied, “The one who lets his garment flow beneath his ankles, the one who (after doing a favour to people,) reminds them of his favours, and the one who takes false oaths when marketing and advertising his merchandise (i.e. he takes false oaths and lies to people about the quality of the merchandise, etc.).” [9]
