The Details of the Question
- Can men wear garments that are longer and reach below their ankles?
The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
Yes, if there is no intention of pride, boasting and showing off.
The clothes that are worn, whether they are worn by men or women, should not be dragged on the ground; among many other drawbacks, the most important one is that they will be contaminated with dirt and germs.
