Wearing one's pants according to the sunnah way

· 1 Rabiʻ I 1445 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I came to know it's sunnah to keep the trousers/pants till the mid calf. My question is that should we advise people to adhere to this sunnah nowadays as others will definitely make fun of the people wearing till mid calf?

Answer

Wherever you are able to encourage people to practice upon the sunnah, then you should do so. There is great reward mentioned in the hadith for those who practice upon the sunnah and propagate the sunnah to others.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
