Sahih Muslim 2086 (Book 37, Hadith 77) #12562
The Importance of Proper Clothing Length

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the importance of wearing clothes that are not too long and dragging on the ground.

Ibn 'Umar reported: I happened to pass before Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon bin) with my lower garment trailing (upon the ground). He said: 'Abdullah, tug up your lower garment,, I tugged it up, and he again said: Tug it still further, and I tugged it still further and I went on tugging it afterward, whereupon some of the people said: To what extent? Thereupon he said: To the middle of the shanks.
حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ، وَاقِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ مَرَرْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَفِي إِزَارِي اسْتِرْخَاءٌ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ ارْفَعْ إِزَارَكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَرَفَعْتُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ زِدْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَزِدْتُ فَمَا زِلْتُ أَتَحَرَّاهَا بَعْدُ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ إِلَى أَيْنَ فَقَالَ أَنْصَافِ السَّاقَيْنِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of wearing proper clothing length. It was narrated by Ibn 'Umar, who happened to pass by Allah's Messenger with his lower garment trailing upon the ground. The Prophet then told him to tug up his lower garment, and when he did so, he asked him to tug it even further until it reached the middle of his shanks. This teaches us that we should be mindful when choosing our clothing and make sure that they are not too long or dragging on the ground as this can be disrespectful or inappropriate in certain settings. We should also take care to ensure that our clothing is modest and appropriate for all occasions, as this will help us maintain a good reputation among others in society.
