Ruling on praying in a white garment colored with other colors

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The listener, Hayah al-Mutayri, from 'Afiyah in the Kingdom, sent a question saying: Is it permissible to pray in a white garment that has a little of other colors in it, which a woman wears to cover herself when she prays?
Answer: Yes, the prayer is valid in the garment, but if it resembles men's clothing, it is obligatory for her to leave it. However, if it is from women's clothing and the attire they are accustomed to, there is nothing wrong with it; her prayer is valid... valid. But if it does not, and there is imitation, the prayer is valid, but she should stay away from that and leave the thing that resembles men's clothing; because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
May Allah curse the woman who wears the clothing of a man, and may Allah curse the man who wears the clothing of a womanلعن الله المرأة تلبس لبسة الرجل ولعن الله الرجل يلبس لبسة المرأة
So the imitation of men by women is prohibited, and likewise the imitation of women by men is prohibited. So it is obligatory for everyone to fear Allah and not to imitate. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good. If this fabric is made specifically for women?
The Shaykh: If men do not wear it, it does not harm, if it is in a specific style for women. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
