Ruling on a woman wearing tight clothing in front of women

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
She asks and says: What is the ruling on a woman wearing tight clothing in front of women, and what is the ruling on going out with it while wearing the jilbab, or the abaya, outside the home, such as a school that is for girls only?

Answer:
Wearing tight clothing is not permissible at all, not in front of women, nor in front of men; because it reveals the size of the 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered) and tempts people. So it is obligatory to be cautious of it, and the clothing should be moderate, not tight, and not loose in a way that reveals the 'awrah, but moderate. This is what is obligatory for the woman, and the man as well, that the clothing be moderate, not tight revealing the size of the 'awrah, nor loose where some of the 'awrah might be revealed, but between that. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
