3b] Should the Muslim pay attention to people’s tastes andcustoms and let his garment hang below his ankles? Is thereany isbaal involved in wearing pants?

3b]
They can pay attention to the customs of theircountry and if they lengthen their garment to just above the ankles so as to prevent people from mocking them and so as not to create a barrier between themselves and the people, there is the hope that they will be rewarded more than those who shorten their garments more.
Letting the pants come lower than the ankle is a haraam action and no attention should be paid to people’s tastes and customs. The accountable Muslim has no right to go against this ruling for the sake of people. As for the degree of shortening, if he pays attention to the customs of his country and how people will look at him,that will be better for him.
