The Evils in the Streets of Riyadh: The Clothing of Foreigners

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We observe in the streets of Riyadh some disbelieving foreigners who go out with their thighs and buttocks exposed, practicing running in the streets, and their private parts are visible from their bare thighs, or from tight clothing that goes only to the middle of the thighs, or even less, which leads to fitnah (trial, discord or temptation), especially for women. We ask Your Eminence to intercede to remove this evil so that some of the youth, who are ignorant of their religion and imitate others, do not follow their example, even if they are disbelievers and mushrikin (those who associate partners with Allah)?

Answer:
If Allah wills, that is good. May Allah reward you with good. I hope this will be addressed, if Allah wills.
