Abu Dharr said: “May they be doomed and lost; who are they, O Messenger of Allaah?” He said: “The one who lets his garment hang beneath his ankles, the one who reminds others of favours he has done, and the one who sells his product by means of false oaths.”<br /><br /> Narrated by Muslim, 106. <br /><br />there are many other ahaadiths about it. some people believe in it, others dont. at the end of the day, to each what he believes he has to follow from the commandments of Allah and the sunnahFatou Thiounehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563937838900680898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837454513460518305.post-80315986766768341262009-12-04T15:57:02.954-08:002009-12-04T15:57:02.954-08:00Maddie: I just had to include that :D Thanks for c...Maddie: I just had to include that :D Thanks for commenting!<br /><br />Candice: Yeah I feel the same way! I don't normally express my views for fear of backlash- but then again, I should stand strong on my stance. We should be more accepting of differing viewpoints- it's not like it's harming any of us right? :D Thank you for commenting!<br /><br />Stacy aka Fahiima: Woah, I actually remember reading a hadith about it (in an etiquette book) and started condemning my brother for his saggy jeans. I recognize now how narrow-minded I was because at the end of the day, it's their own choice. I don't particularly agree with that because I don't understand the logic behind jeans that reach below your ankle to the top half of the shoe. Thanks for commenting Stacy! :D<br /><br />Habibti: In all seriousness, I honestly do not know why it's obligatory or why it's a sin. Could you please explain? :]<br /><br />Ghost writer: I'm so sorry if I came off as belittling those who try and adhere to the sunnah. I was just a bit peeved at people who try to impose their own ways or beliefs on me, even if it's unwanted. Plus it was just my own reasons for not being, as.. into it -for lack of a better word- as others (I still follow sunnah, just not all of them).<br /> Go wild, as I said in there, no one's stopping what isn't haram (unless we're discussing mawlid, then I have a bit of a problem with that)<br /><br />However, I don't agree with the world being created because of the prophet saw, Allah swt created the universe so we could worship Him. At least that's what I believe. And hey, thanks for commenting!

Everything he did - be it trousers above the ankle or sleeping in a certain way - was for a reason and modern science is proving just how deep his actions were every single day. So if someone wants to go out of his way to follow a sunnah - be it out of love for the prophet or just because he wants extra rewards - then why not? Who are we to criticise?<br /><br />I don't like it when people dismiss sunnah as 'only sunnah' just because they don't have the strength to do it themselves. How can something be 'ONLY' sunnah - how demeaning is that to our Prophet - because of whom this entire world was created? Who will be the ONLY person to stand on the day of judgement and cry for his ummah, when everyone else will be too concerned about themselves.<br /><br />Having said that, I agree that some people place so much emphasis on the little things that they forget about the big things.<br /><br />It's difficult to strike a balance but I think essentially, it comes down to being considerate of others. If you want to practise every sunnah you can - go for it - but let others get on with their lives without berating them. And if you don't - that's your decision - but don't belittle those who do.Ghost Writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18361758796896345706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837454513460518305.post-8943498149008636642009-12-04T11:54:31.182-08:002009-12-04T11:54:31.182-08:00well about the pants men shouldnt wear it past the...well about the pants men shouldnt wear it past their ankles. thats an obligation, not a sunnah.Fatou Thiounehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563937838900680898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837454513460518305.post-39306801474067121422009-12-04T08:59:05.441-08:002009-12-04T08:59:05.441-08:00I agree with you completely.

He had only 1 nice pair of pants and didn't want to ruin them. The other guys criticized him for following the sunnah of the prophet down to the letter. I don't think that just b/c something was done a certain way in 7th C. Arabia means that literally everything needs to be done the way it was there at that time.Stacy K. https://www.blogger.com/profile/06853574441003653244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837454513460518305.post-27098545580974226272009-12-04T08:58:12.611-08:002009-12-04T08:58:12.611-08:00When I started reading the part of your post about...When I started reading the part of your post about definitions of Islam, I was a bit afraid it was going to be something about people who have definitions a bit outside the norm. I feel I fit into that category. But we actually fully agree! <br /><br />I think I'm being paranoid. Someone wrote a post I felt might've been in relation to something I wrote on my blog and now I'm imagining the blogging world is against me. lol. Nah, I actually feel full of support overall from the blogging world and I think my views are generally accepted (even from the people who might disagree).Candicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15769515811889621243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837454513460518305.post-83418890211146573902009-12-03T21:57:38.389-08:002009-12-03T21:57:38.389-08:00Oh goodness, I agree with how far Sunnah people ca...Oh goodness, I agree with how far Sunnah people can get.
