The ruling on wearing loose trousers with tight clothing that reveals the private parts
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question from a reader in Europe. He says: There is a group of upright brothers in Europe who wear loose trousers and over them they wear tight clothing that reveals their attractive features, and the girls are captivated by them. If you advise them, they say, “The awrah (part of the body that must be covered) is between the navel and the knee.” What is your advice to these people? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
Yes, the limit is the navel, and the awrah (part of the body that must be covered) is from the navel to the knee. But if he wears tight clothing, that is another matter; it is a second fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). So he should not wear tight clothing that tempts the one looking at it. Or if he covered the awrah (part of the body that must be covered) but covered it with something attractive, that is not permissible. He should cover it with something ugly and loose. As for covering it with something tight, that increases the fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
