What is the ruling on wearing modest clothing that does not cover the forearms up to above the elbows?
A man must cover his 'awrah, which was previously defined in Fatwa no. 40008. It is also recommended for him to observe public etiquette, such as wearing clothes that cover his elbows and forearms if this is the custom of society, in order to avoid blameworthy fame.
