It is narrated from Al-Ala’s father (Abdur Rahman bin Ya’qub) that I asked Sayyiduna Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) about the lower garment (izar), so he said: I will tell you with knowledge. I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: The izar of a believer should reach to the middle of the shins; there is no harm if it is between that and the ankles, but whatever is below that is in the Fire. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said this three times: Whoever drags his izar out of pride, Allah will not look at him (with mercy) on the Day of Resurrection.
