on: Is Tsitsit allowed to be placed on the floor?

: If only ‘placed’ on the floor, it is allowed. But if it’s ‘dragged’, depending on whether it’s when the person is already wearing it, and while it’s resting on its body, it’s being dragged, many Poskim allow it. But At the time of dressing and you drag them in your hands, be careful not to do so. And there is no ‘prohibition’ in this thing, especially at this time when the Tsitsit are strong, and the floors are also paved and clean, nor does it seem as if he is using the Tsitsit to clean the dust and dirt. However, even if it is not a ‘disgrace’ to theTsitsit, there is still a lack of ‘respect’. unless it is caused by what is ‘glorific in the Mitzvah’, that it will have a tallit and long Tsitsit, or when it is impossible to do so.   Sources

Attention: You should not learn from one case to another, each case must be analyzed individually. Generally speaking, it's always best to have contact with a Rabbi in person, not just virtual contact. Note that where there is a local Rabbi("Mara Deatra"), one should ask him. The answers are under the responsibility of the rabbi who responded, and not under the responsibility of the website and/or the Head of the Institution.
