حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، وَزَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، يُخْبِرُونَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رضى الله عنهما

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا يَنْظُرُ اللَّهُ إِلَى مَنْ جَرَّ ثَوْبَهُ خُيَلَاءَ»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, ‘Allah will not look at the person who drags his garment (behind him) out of conceit.’

ইবনু ‘উমার (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত যে, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ আল্লাহ সে লোকের দিকে (দয়ার দৃষ্টিতে) দেখবেন না, যে অহঙ্কারের সাথে তার পরিধেয়) পোশাক টেনে চলে। [৩৬৬৫; মুসলিম ৩৭/৮, হাঃ ২০৮৫, আহমাদ ৫৩৭৭]

ہم سے اسماعیل بن ابی اویس نے بیان کیا، کہا مجھ سے امام مالک نے، انہوں نے نافع اور عبداللہ بن دینار اور زید بن اسلم سے، انہوں نے عبداللہ بن عمر رضی اللہ عنہما سے کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا ”اللہ تعالیٰ اس کی طرف قیامت کے دن نظر رحمت نہیں کرے گا جو اپنا کپڑا تکبر و غرور سے زمین پر گھسیٹ کر چلتا ہے۔“

Telah menceritakan kepadaku [Isma'il] dia berkata; telah menceritakan kepadaku [Malik] dari [Nafi'] dan [Abdullah bin Dinar] serta [Zaid bin Aslam] mereka telah mengabarkan kepadanya dari [Ibnu Umar] radliallahu 'anhuma bahwa Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Allah tidak akan melihat orang yang menjulurkan pakaiannya dengan sombong

İbn Ömer r.a.'dan rivayete göre Rasulullah Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem: "Allah, büyüklenerek elbisesini yerde sürükleyen kimseye bakmaz" buyurmuştur. Fethu'l-Bari Açıklaması: "Azıme" vezninde "mahıle", huyela anlamındadır. Bu da tekebbür demektir.

Rağıb dedi ki: Huyela, insanın kendisinde var olduğunu gördüğü bir üstünlükten meydana gelen tekebbürdür. el-Muvaffak Abdullatif el-Bağdadl de şöyle demektedir: Bu hadis, insanın kendisini güzel bir şekilde çekip çevirmesinin faziletli yanlarını bir arada ifade etmektedir. Bu hadiste dünya ve ahirette ruhun ve bedenin bütün maslahatlarının çekip çevrilmesi dile getirilmiştir.

Şüphesiz her hususta israf hem bedene zararlıdır, bem de maişete zarar verir. İsraf, gereksiz telef etmeye (tüketime) götürür ve kişinin ruhuna da zarar verir. Çünkü ruh (nefs) çoğu hallerde bedene tabidir. Büyuklenmek ise nefse zarar verir. Çünkü nefis bunun sonucunda kendisini beğenir. Ahirete de zarar verir. Çünkü günah kazandırır. Dünyaya da zararlıdır. Çünkü insanlar tarafından nefret edilmeyi gerektirir

Sahih al-Bukhari 5783, Book 77, Dress, Hadith 1. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) warned against lengthening the garment or the lower garment below the ankles by way of conceit and arrogance, pointing out that whoever does so will deserve the severe punishment that Allah will not look at him mercifully on the Day of Judgment.

What it teaches

  • The garment includes whatever covers the lower part of the body, such as trousers, a garment, a lower garment, etc.
  • The prohibition of Isbāl (letting one's garment trail) is peculiar to men. An-Nawawi said: Scholars have unanimously agreed on the permissibility of Isbāl for women. It was authentically reported from the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) that he permitted women to extend their hems a forearm's length.
  • Ibn Bāz said: Isbāl is forbidden and prohibited given the general indication of the Hadīth. As for the punishment, it varies and does not necessarily have to be the same; the one who intends conceit is not like the one who does not intend it.
  • Ibn Bāz said: A woman is ‘Awrah (what must be covered), so there is no harm in extending her garment by a handspan, and if that is not sufficient, she may extend it by an arm’s length starting from the ankle.
  • Al-Qādi said: Scholars said: In conclusion, anything in clothing that exceeds the need and customary length or width is disliked, and Allah knows best.
  • An-Nawawi said: The recommended length for the lower end of the shirt or the lower garment is halfway down the shins. There is no blame for it being between that and the ankles. However, anything lower than that is in the fire. Therefore, the recommended length is halfway down the shins, the permissible without being disliked is below that up to the ankles, and anything lower than the ankles is forbidden.
  • Ibn ‘Uthaymīn said regarding his statement: (Allah will not look at him), i.e., the look of mercy and compassion, not the general type of look, because nothing is hidden from Allah and nothing escapes His sight. Rather, it refers to the look of mercy and compassion.
