What is the ruling on wearing tight trousers with a long tunic that reaches below the knee, and what are the worldly and otherworldly consequences for a woman who wears it while knowing its impermissibility? And is a woman considered a hypocrite if she sometimes combines this type of clothing with loose clothing?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A woman is permitted to wear loose clothing in her home, but she is not allowed to go out in it in front of non- men if it does not cover what must be covered. Her wearing loose clothing is sometimes commendable and does not indicate hypocrisy, but rather a weakness of faith. It is obligatory for a Muslim woman to adhere to the legal when leaving her home, as it is an obligation.
