The Ruling on a Woman Praying in Tight Clothing

Question
The Sheikh mentioned that a woman's prayer in tight clothing is valid but sinful; how is that?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: The covering in prayer is that the skin should not be seen. Therefore, if a woman wears pants, her prayer is valid for covering the private parts; however, because they are tight and do not provide complete legal covering, her prayer is valid but incomplete, and she will be sinful for it. And God knows best.
