    Default Uncovering ankles in salaah

    Assalamu 'alaikum.
    The issue is pretty on-going, but is there a khilaf on the issue of uncovering your ankles in salaah as well as in your day-to-day life? Is there an ijma that the ankles should be revealed (i.e. your trousers not covering over them) in salaah? Jazakallahu khair.

    Erase yourself until effaced, O Faqir, efface yourself until erased!

    The deobandi ulama generally say its makruh tahrimi, but I have seen fatawa from other hanafis stating it is tanzihi.

    Jazakallahu khair for your answers. However, I was particularly looking for the legality of the action in the context of actually performing salaah whilst having the ankles covered. Does the same ruling apply or is there a different ruling? I am assuming that if there was a different ruling then the shuyukh would mention it in their answers explicitly.

    The same ruling applies both inside and outside salaat.
