The ruling on a woman wearing pants in front of her husband
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is it permissible for a woman to wear pants in front of her husband?
No.
It is forbidden for a woman to wear pants, whether in front of her husband, in front of women, or in the market; because that is imitating men, and a woman imitating men is a cause for the curse of Allah—may Allah protect us from that. Furthermore, it completely erases modesty from the woman; because if a woman goes out wearing pants, it is known that her thighs are exposed, and their size is distinct and clear, so her modesty is removed. Therefore, you find, for example, that a person is very shy when he first sees someone’s private parts, but if he does not care about his private parts being exposed, this becomes easy for him.
Then, we do not feel safe that a day may come when the Christians, the Jews, and those who wish to harm Islam and Muslims invent pants that resemble skin, meaning: in the color of skin and also tight. If a woman wears them, she becomes as if she is completely naked—may Allah protect us from that.
