Is it permissible for women to wear sports apparel, such as club jerseys (e.g., Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad), without the intention of imitating men?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

A woman is permitted to wear sportswear designated for women or that which is unisex, provided she adheres to Islamic regulations. However, she is forbidden from wearing anything specific to men, even if she does not intend to imitate them. This is because imitation occurs by the resemblance in form and appearance, whether intended or not. This also applies to clothes bearing club logos.
