kindly help me !!

You do just what you posted. Go into the directory you want to see. As an example:

cd /home/your_home_directory's_name/directory_you_want_to_see

Then simply:

ls -l

You can also use it without 'cd-ing' to the directory:

ls -l /home/your_home_directory's_name/directory_you_want_to_see

EDIT: Saw your other post which also inquires about '-a'... To see all files and directories, including the hidden ones:

ls -a /home/your_home_directory's_name/directory_you_want_to_see
ls -l -a /home/your_home_directory's_name/directory_you_want_to_see

Make sure there is a space between the ls and the -l or -a. For more options, do:

ls --help

I think you might be interested in the header file «stat.h»¹ and all the functions defined in it, especially «stat()», «fstat()» and «lstat()», which offer all the values seens by an invocation of «ls -l» and more.
