Wearing clothes with tight sleeves in front of women and mahrams

Question

Praise be to Allah.

Firstly:

It is permissible for a woman to wear whatever clothes she
wants so long as that is not imitating men or kaafir women, or uncovering
the ‘awrah in front of those before whom it must be covered. Covering the
awrah can only be achieved by wearing concealing garments that do not show
what is underneath them, and which are wide and do not show the size of her
frame. See the answer to question no.

Secondly:

The ‘awrah of a woman in front of her mahrams such as her
father, brother, son and nephew, is her entire body except what usually
appears, such as her face, hair, neck, forearms and feet. Allah says
(interpretation of the meaning):

“…and not to show off their adornment except only that
which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer
palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, headcover, apron), and
to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks
and bosoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or
their fathers, or their husband’s fathers, or their sons, or their husband’s
sons, or their brothers or their brother’s sons, or their sister’s sons, or
their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves
whom their right hands possess…”

[al-Nisa’ 4:31]

Based on that, it is permissible for her to wear tight
sleeves from the hands to the elbows, because that is not part of the ‘awrah
before mahrams, so long as there is no cause for suspicion or temptation.

There is also nothing wrong with wearing these kinds of
sleeves in front of women, because Allah says in the verse quoted above “or
their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam)”, as that is not part
of the ‘awrah in front of other women.
