shorts?

perform abulution again?

Answer:
Can men wear shorts?
In the name of Allah, We praise
Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none
can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright.
We bear witness that there is no one (no idol,
no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam,
no dai, nobody!) worthy of
worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His
slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.
Your question: i would like to know whether it is allowed
for men to put on shorts?
The satr of the believing man is
from his navel upto his knees,
inclusive. Thus if a believing
man wears shorts that cover his body from his navel upto his knees
inclusive, there is absolutely no
harm.
Your question: if a person looks at
haram pictures after wudhu,must one perform abulution again?
The wudu would become invalid if
one actually releases his semen, or
answers the call of nature, or
sleeps. If perchance a believer in the
state of wudu looks at a ‘haraam’ picture,
it does not break his state of wudu.
Whatever written of Truth and
benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error
is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He
is the Only Source of Strength.
Your Brother in
Islam,
