Question:

Is it better to wear a jalabiyya or abaya or a long skirt over loose
trousers? Are loose trousers considered haram?

--------
Answer:

Yes, it is better for women to wear a jalabiya or an abaya to cover the
frontal part of the body. Any dress that would reveal the shape or body
contours of a woman would not complete the HIJAB.
