What is the ruling on women wearing pants?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on women wearing pants?

Answer:
It is not permissible. Pants are not clothing for women; they are clothing for men, specifically for some men, not all of them, but for those who have become accustomed to wearing them. Also, a woman is an awrah (part of the body that must be covered), and if she wears pants, they reveal her body and her limbs, which leads to severe fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). Yes.
