Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. We have a professor who says that it is permissible for men and women to wear the panjabi and jeans. Is it permissible? Yes. Is his statement correct?
Answer:
His statement is invalid; because it is not permissible for a man to imitate a woman, and it is not permissible for a woman to imitate a man. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih al-Bukhari 5885 It is not permissible for one of the two sexes to imitate the other, or to wear their clothes. Imitating the other by wearing their clothes is imitation.
