The Ruling on Women Imitating Men

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on women adopting masculine behavior in this time, when imitating men has become widespread? Please guide us in light of this, may you be rewarded.

Answer:
It is forbidden, and it is a major sin among the major sins, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the women who imitate men, and he cursed the men who imitate women. This is a major sin among the major sins, and there is no power and no strength except with Allah. Yes.
