The punishment is even worse when one drags his garment out of conceit, and he will soon receive his punishment in this world. The prophet ( - ) said: ‘whoever hangs down his garment out of conceit, All?h ( - ) will never look at him [with mercy] on the day of Resurrection’. (1)
Every [male] muslim should ward off what All?h ( - ) made forbidden upon him, such as letting garments down to the ground and other sins’.
It indeed breaks our hearts - and the heart of every muslim who hates that All?h’s ( - ) boundaries and laws be violated and who is keen on bringing happiness to other muslims - to see that this ruling is violated by both men and women. You see men letting down their garments and giving free rein for their women to shorten their garments in the way and manner they like, uncover their heads, necks and bosoms, apply perfumes out side their houses and walk out in the streets displaying their beauty and bodies for all people to see. We have no power nor might but with All?h ( - ).
[5] Wrapping one’s whole body with one garment and covering one’s mouth in Sal?t:
Ab? Hurairah ( - رضي الله عنه -) related ‘that the prophet ( - ) prohibited that one wraps one’s whole body with one garment and cover one’s mouth in Sal?t’. (2)
(1) The narrations of this had?th were reported in the previous note.
(2) related by Ibn Khuzaimah in the book of Sal?t, chapter: The prohibition of wrapping one’s whole body with a garment, (vol.1 / p.379) (no. 772), Ab? D?w?d in the Book of Sal?t, chapter: The narrations regarding wrapping one self with one garment in salat, (vol. 1 / p. 174), (no. 643), At-Tirmith? in the Book of Sal?t, chapter: The prohibition of wrapping one self with a garment, (vol. 2 / p. 217) (no. 378), Ahmad in his “Musnad” (vol. 2 / p. 295, 341) and Al-H?kim in his “Mustadrak “(vol. 1 / p. 253). The had?th is sound. Refer to “Sah?h Al-J?mi’As-Sagh?r “(no. 6883).
