Can my wife wear my shirt shalwar? Is this not resemblance to men.

Question

I wear a shirt shalwar so as my wife. However the difference is there as you know about Indians and Pakistanis.

Answer

It is prohibited for a woman to don such garments which are specifically
designed for males. However, if it is not a special dress for men, but
rather worn by both males and females, it will be permissible. (Fataawa
Mahmoodiya vol.5 pg.219; Maktaba Mahmoodiyyah)

It is also prohibited for a female to wear a tight fitting garment that
reveals the form and shape of her body.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
