The Ruling on a Man Imitating a Woman's Voice and Wearing Her Clothing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. We have a call from Fayyadh in Abha. Yes, peace be upon you and Allah's mercy and blessings. And peace be upon you and Allah's mercy and blessings. Yes. Shaykh, some young men, may Allah guide them, imitate women's voices and similar things, such as wearing long hair and women's clothing. If you would, Shaykh, please comment on this matter. May Allah reward you with good. Thank you, Fayyadh. Please, Shaykh.

Answer:
It is not permissible for men to imitate women, and it is not permissible for women to imitate men, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the men who imitate women and the women who imitate men. It is not permissible to imitate them in their voices, their appearance, their clothing, or anything else. Yes.
