What is the ruling on a woman wearing trousers solely for her husband, and in her home?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: What is the ruling on a woman wearing trousers solely for her husband, and in her home? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
Trousers are not part of women's clothing; rather, they are men's clothing. This is due to the imitation of men involved in them, and the fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) they entail. If she wears them in front of her husband, she may end up wearing them and becoming lax in her conduct in front of other men. Therefore, there is no need for a woman to wear trousers under any circumstances. Yes. And she should adorn herself for her husband with something other than trousers. Yes.
