The ruling on a woman wearing a coat over the jilbab

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He also has another question, saying: Is it permissible for a woman to wear a coat over the jilbab on the outside, knowing that she does not go out except in cases of dire necessity and severe cold?

Answer:
The important thing is that the woman covers herself when she goes out; she covers herself completely, so that nothing of her is visible, with any covering, any clothing, or any...
The important thing is that she covers herself. As for the details of the clothing, these depend on the circumstances of women and the needs of women. She is not prevented from anything except what is men's clothing; she does not wear men's clothing, but rather she wears women's clothing. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Allah has cursed the women who imitate men and the men who imitate women.لعن الله المتشبهات من النساء بالرجال، ولعن الله المتشبهين من الرجال بالنساء،
Therefore, it is not permissible for one of the two sexes to imitate the other. Each has its own clothing: men have their clothing, and women have their clothing.
