It Is From Ar-Rujoolah (masculinity) To Wear Your Thiyaab (clothes) Above Your Ankles‏

'Ayyuhal-Akhal-Muslim! It Is From Ar-Rujoolah (masculinity) To Wear Your Thiyaab (clothes) Above Your Ankles, Clinging To The Purified Sunnah...

روى ابن ابى شيبه فى كتاب المصنف عن خرشه بن الحر أن عمر بن الخطاب رأى رجلاً وقد أطال إزاره فقال: أحائض أنت، فقال يأمير المؤمنين وهل يحيض الرجل؟ قال: نعم لما أسبلت إزار لك-لأن اسبال الإزار لا يكون الا للنساء - قال فأتى عمر بمشبط ـ مقص ـ وقص ما ذاد عن الكعبين قال خرشه بن الحر:فكأنى أنظر إلى خيوط الإزار على عقبيه

It has been reported by Ibn Abee Shaybah (رحمه الله تعالى) in his Musannaf (8/393), on the authority of Kharshah bin al-Hurr that 'Umar bin al-Khattaab (رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَ) saw a man with his long 'Izaar, so he said: "Are you having your menses?" The man replied: "Oh Ameeral-Mu'mineen! Does a man have menses?" He said, "Na'am when you lower your 'Izaar because 'Isbaal (wearing garments below the ankles) is not for anyone except the women." So 'Umar was given a blade or scissors, (folded the lower ends of the man's 'Izaar) and cut what trailed from the ankles. Kharshah bin al-Hurr (رحمه الله تعالى) said, "It is as I'm looking at the threads of the 'Izaar hanging from his ankles right now."

عن عبيد بن خالد أنه قال: "كنت أمشي وعليَّ برد أجره، فقال لي رجل" ارفع ثوبك فإنه أنقى وأبقى" فنظرت فإذا هو النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقلت: إنما هي بردة ملحاء – أي فيها خطوط سود وبيض – فقال: " أما لك في أسوة؟" قال: فنظرت فإذا إزاره إلى أنصاف ساقيه

On the authority of 'Ubayd bin Khaalid (رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَ) who said, "I was walking dragging my Burd (a black decorated square outer garment), A man said to me, "Raise your Thawb (garment) because that (will keep it) more clean and it will last longer." I looked (to see who was talking to me) and he was the Prophet (صلّى الله عليه وَسَلَّمَ). I said, "It is only black and white treads (of the outer garment)." So he (صلّى الله عليه وَسَلَّمَ) said, "Don't you have an example in me?" He ('Ubayd) said: "I looked (at him) and his 'Izaar was (extending) to the middle of his shins."
