Does a woman wearing sheer, tight clothing and trousers in front of her husband fall under the hadith: "Two categories of the people of the Fire whom I have not seen..."?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good. This questioner says: Does a woman wearing sheer, short clothing and trousers in front of her husband fall under the saying of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him):
Two are the types of the denizens of Hell صنفان من أهل النار
Sahih Muslim 2128
the hadith?

The Shaykh : If it is in front of her husband, then wearing short or sheer clothing does not fall under that, because there is no blame on either the husband or the wife to expose their 'awrah to each other, as Allah the Exalted said:
(5) And they who guard their private parts (6) Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed - والذين هم لفروجهم حافظون * إلا على أزواجهم أو ما ملكت أيمانهم فإنهم غير ملومين
[Al-Mu'minun 23:5-6]
And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to take a ghusl from janabah, he and 'A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her), in one vessel, and they would both scoop from it, and their hands would differ in it وكان النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يغتسل من الجنابة هو وعائشة رضي الله عنها في إناء واحد يغترفان منه جميعا وتختلف أيديهما فيه
For example, her hand may have lowered the ladle, or the ladle, and the Messenger may have lowered his hand to scoop, and this indicates that there is no 'awrah between the two spouses. However, we do not see the permissibility of trousers, even with the husband, because trousers are specific to men, so if women wear them, it becomes an imitation of men on their part, and this is a serious matter. Yes.
